Another knife which will soon be in service overseas. Forged 5160, blade is 7 1/2", overall length is 12 1/2". The handle is Linen Micarta, guard is nickel silver. This time the maker and the user will be one in the same. It was a little bit of a rush job to get it done, but it sure does cut.
Thanks for looking.

Very nice knife. Be safe.

Nice knife, Whit. I love the blade profile. Best wishes for a safe return. BTW, still with the 10th Mountain?
 
God Bless You! And thank you for stepping up and serving our country.
That knife looks to be very worthy and here's hoping it serves you well!

Be safe and we hope you return intact and soon!

All the best,
Mike U.
 
Thanks for the comments. The knife is working out just fine, mostly just looking good so far! I must admit it's a pretty good feeling when people say "what kind of knife is that?" and I can tell them I made it.
Thanks for the thoughts and prayers, obviously life isn't too bad if I have time to check out Bladeforums right? I'll check in with you guys from time to time.
 
I hope you don't HAVE to use it, but I am sure it will do well if you do. Be safe, and THANK YOU!!!
