This is a double edged variation of my 8" fighter pattern for a very patient collector in Austria.

8" blade, A2, African Blackwood.

I think this is one of the nastiest stabbing weapons I've made.
 
Nice work Nathan!
I do need to get one of your fighters one of these days.
BTW, I loved your WIP thread!
 
Hello!

ArchAngel - you will not regret it! What the images don't tell is the ecquisite handling and balance of Nathan's fighters!

Nathan, thank you for making this project happen! Love everything from the machined blackwood to the wicked blade! Can't wait to get my hands on it! :)

Best regards,
Alex
 
Hello!

I finally got my hands on Nathan's latest beauty - here's a first shot of my pair:

While I still think that my first one in the original layout is a great knife, the new model is even nicer imo. Those African Blackwood scales alone...

Thanks again, Nathan! It's been a real pleasure!

Best regards,
Alex
