Hello everybody!

I've always to try this style of handle and I'm quite pleased with the end result. Obviously is not traditionally made but feels really nice in hand. I will definately do more of this style.

Steel: 1084
Handle: Blackened mild steel guard, wooden core, cotton underwrap and synthetic black wrap handle.

Dimensions:
Overall length: 32 cm -12.59''
Blade length: 17 cm - 6.69''
Blade width: 4.8 cm - 1.88''
Blade thickness: 5 mm - 0.196''
Handle length: 12.5 cm - 4.92''

Flat grind with a convex edge. My pictures are quite awful, the video in HD is a better representation.
The clip is not sharp (can't be). The wooden core is secured with carbon fiber pin as shown in the picture. The wrap is soaked with marine grade epoxy and its rock solid.

It comes as is or with a brown leather sheath. The sheath is not ready yet, you can choose for either left or right side carry.

Price: SOLD
Free international shipping with priority mail and a tracking number.
Via PayPal. DO NOT MENTION THE WORDS KNIFE/BLADE OR SIMILAR IN THE PAYPAL COMMENTS!

Tony, this one is fantastic. The size of the handle is great compared to most wrap handles! I waited too long on this one!

One like this with menuki and hamon blade would be insane. If not a satin hamon blade, a solid blackwashed blade, gun blue or dipped? Wow, this is a great design.
 
Thank you guys for your kind words! I really appreciate it!

Very nice , would ray skin under the wrap exponentially raise the cost ?

With a quick research, it shouldn't raise the cost more than 20$.

This one was done as a proof of concept, I needed to know how the knife would feel etc. I plan on doing more elaborate pieces of this style in the near future.
