Hey again! Here is a fun little one I made more as a test. There is a whole lot more time put into this than what I put into the normal version. I REALLY like how it came out, but it is not perfect. The dovetailed joint has slight gaps, but you wouldn't really notice unless you are looking for it. I really like how the handle contouring feels on this one!

I'm asking $175 shipped for this one, with Paypal or money order. Includes a leather pocket sheath made by my dad.

Specs:
OAL-Just under 7"
Blade length-3 1/8"
Steel-.1 CPM 3v with heat treatment and cyro done by Peters heat treating to 61 hrc
Handle materiel-antiqued hammer copper along with some INSANE wood from the man himself (Backwoodscustom), both secured with copper corby bolts.
Grind-Right handed chisel grind, "Antique" finish

Now for some pics






 
Wow Drew! That's really nice man! Keep em coming...

I will get back to your email tonight. Been on the road all day for work.
 
That looks awesome mate. Although with Bill using c-tek and you using his wood...can we expect to see a feather damascus PFB from you soon? ;) :D
Great work
 
Thanks Gordy!

Chris-I've though about it, but don't quite have the confidence to pull it off yet. Thanks for the kind words
 
Given the materials you used and the finish I can derive from the pictures, you're selling this knife at quite a steal of a price. Nice work!
 
Thanks leosapprentice, glad your carrying it!

Thanks Bladenoobie, this definitely was not my most profitable knife, it was more of a test to see if you guys like iras much as I do so I know if I should make more. I definitely think I'll be doing it again.
 
Hey Drew....

You can use me for your new blade tester anytime you want too. I volunteer to be your "Guinea Pig"...LOL

Gordy
 
you really nailed it with the texture on the bolsters going great with the pattern of the wood!
 
Hey, might have to take you up on that one sometime Gordy ;) :D

Thanks timos, I asked Mr. Akers to surprise me with some wood and I don't think he could have done much better, thanks man!
