Amboyna "Hawthorne"

[Russ Andrews]

The "Hawthorne" is a standard pattern of mine, and this one has an
unusually well figured piece of Amboyna burl, and a couple of
improvements.
The ferrule is made from 3/8" SS, and the butt is enlarged for a
better grip.
Blade is 10" W2.

That's a terrific piece Russ. I saw rigth away the changes to the countouring of the handle and don't doubt they make an already great design that much better. :thumbup:

Thanks guys, your comments are much appreciated.
The pics dont show it, but the Hamon kicks back
the full length of the swedge, and is pretty active,
and done w/o clay.

I like big butts, and I cannot lie!
Your guards are always beautiful, and this knife is a great combination of very nice things.
