Greetings everyone! Here’s a new EDC Fighter ready for action.
Steel is 5/32” x 1 ½” in 52100 with professional HT at 60/61. Hand sanded to P1500 grit for a highly reflective satin finish. Balance at the front pin. The swedge could be sharpened pretty easy with conventional methods.
There are a few remnant HT dimples in this one that could not be ground out without changing the character of the blade. It’s reflected in the price. No impact on performance though!
Edge before sharpening was .010” or so and the blade glides through phone book paper, leather, rope etc.
Dimensions: 9 1/8”” OAL, Tip to Guard 4 7/8”
A beautiful Wenge Leopardwood dovetail handle is sanded to 1200 grit with red racing stripes and 1/8” brass pins and tube. The handle feels great in my average sized hand but might be on the small side for larger hands. Finished with multiple coats of Danish oil and carnauba wax. Sheath is lined with a fine felt like material and molded for a snug fit.
Very affordable at only $145 to your door for this one, and of course your satisfaction is my only priority. I can accept paypal, check or MO, and the price includes fees and free shipping in the US.
Thanks so much for looking and please feel free to ask anything here or via PM. I can email the full resolution photos as well.

P.S. I’ve also got 1 more twin to this one that could be finished to your specs.
