The latest addition to my Aggression family of large, double-edged, aggressive knives is interesting to me in how I can see the evolution and refinement of the basic idea and in the execution. It has a forged 5160 blade 12" long that is fully sharpened on the top edge for about 2/3 of the length and a gentle recurve to the profile. The handle is a curved coffin outline wrapped in epoxy-impregnated retina-searing neon orange paracord with a black overlay and three-strand Turk's head knot, the butt end of the tang left exposed.



And it comes with a Luke Swenson sheath featuring a dinosaur hide inlay. Or ostrich leg. They look much the same. :D



The sheath has an adjustable-height belt loop.



And to give a sense of scale, a couple of shots of it in hand.





It has the same overall length as one of my 18" tomahawks. I think this would look great on a T-shirt. :)

 
Very nice James, I like that one a lot. :thumbup:
 
Thanks, everyone!

El Bandit0 - Actually, south of San Antonio, upslope from my shop. There's a good-sized wash (or arroyo as my landlord calls it) that's like a miniature Grand Canyon, and has a wide variety of colors. I like to take pictures of my work there. You can walk three feet over and have a completely different background.
