Walnut handle, Minwax Ebony Dye, single 1/16" brass pin for contrast. Wood from Mike Jones

Mild steel guard, butt cap, and finale w/carved daisy design, all cold blued fittings.

Balance point right in the middle of the guard.

Thanks for your comments and any critical feedback.

Bob,

I like the shape of the knife. Long pointy tip and the cool thing at the butt. (see, I know all the technical terms) All in all, a great looking knife in my opinion.
