7-1/2" Aikuchi in Crucible CPM-4v and Carbon Fiber UPDATED with saya pics!

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. This one was a long time coming, but once it took off it really rolled.

How did hand sanding 4v feel?

I wish more people understood what this takes. Obviously you already know the answer. Oddly enough, this one wasn't the worst - I did a blade last year that was six inches longer. Ugh. This stuff is harder to hand sand fully annealed than W2 is fully hardened. :eek:

I can bet in one dollar that he will use Braided Carbon Fibre Sleeve for Sheath ................... :) Beautiful knife ............
 
Really amazing! Such a great looking piece. One feature your knives have that I love is the understated beveled spine and area at the front of the ricasso. Such a minor detail but adds enormous character.
The rest of the knife is pretty cool too 😜.

:thumbup: Matthew , I wonder if it is possible to incorporate little kevlar in sheath ? Just small detail ,somewhere , somehow ? I think it would be great ....... all black and a little yellow .Kevlar have beautiful color too when is soaked in epoxy and you can get it ......Braided KEVLAR® Biaxial Sleeve or KEVLAR® Twill Weave Fabric ?

Just idea ....................:)
 
Finally finished the saya. Terotuf core, three layers of carbon fiber sleeve. A touch of carbon fiber wrap to tie it all together.
