Hello everybody!
Another day, another fighter! This was an experimental piece, I tried to do curved transition on the guard and the handle. I wasn't coming along as I would like and ended up cheating by adding a black leather spacer in between. Structuraly there is nothing wrong with it, it's just much easier to do.
Steel: 1095
Handle: Mild steel guard, black leatehr spacer and ivory micarta handle.
Dimensions:
Overall lenght: 33.5 cm - 13.18''
Blade lenght: 18.5 cm - 7.28''
Blade widht: 4.5 cm - 1.77''
Blade thickness: 6 mm - 0.236''
Handle lenght: 13 cm - 5.11''
Full flat grind with a convex edge. The blade is differentialy heat treated with a no clay hamon (it's quite hard to capture). The pictures do not capture the hamon well, I will attach a video showcasing it as best as I can (make sure to switch to HD). The clip is not sharpened. I wouldn't consider this knife for heavy duty work due to its thin edge.
Unfortunately while shaping the guard, I managed to scratch the ricasso. It shows clearly on the video. Since that, I decided to keep the handle at a relative low finish.
It comes a black leather sheath and a belt loop. The sheath is not ready yet, you can choose for either left or right side carry.
