I just finished up a pair of small fixed blades last night. Both have forged to shape damascus blades made form Craig Barr jungle stripe pattern damascus. The guards are twist damascus and the handles are stag. The top one is more of a drop point and the bottom a clip point. Both have been differentially heat treated with visible temper lines (hamons). I have left a lot of the natural scratches that were on the stag when I received it, gives a bit of character.
Their dimensions are-
Top one- Blade is 3-1/16 long and 1/8 in thick. Overall length is 6 inches.
The bottom one has a 2-3/4 in blade and is 5-5/8 in long overall.

I'm asking $255 for the pair shipped or $135 each shipped.
I don't have sheaths for either of them.
thanks for looking,
Chuck

Chuck - I like! Have I not been paying attention, or are fixed blades few and far between for you? Mike
 
Yes mike, fixed blades are few and far between. Folders are much more challenging to me. I teach a forging class and I forge scrap pieces of damascus left over from folders as demonstrations for forging, grinding, heat treating ect. So I usually make them into fixed blades and sell them cheap. The damascus scraps are too expensive to throw away so I make them into whatever I can. Sometimes into neck knives.
 
Beautiful but unfortunately a little too small for my big ol' clumsy hands. Shame too cauz I have a real jones for a stag handle.
