Yep, media blitz from Sunfish Forge. :D

Something very different from Kyle, Japanese inspired, but not even close to traditional.

11" W2 blade with a very crazy hamon.

Artifact handle, fossil walrus, ice axe with two fire starer holes. Cool piece!

Damascus bolster with copper spacers & pin.

Thanks for looking.

that kid has a wild hair! Good to see :)
and that hamon...
 
The hamon on this thing is crazy & that is good.

Kyle started this one two years and didn't finish because he couldn't wrap he head around what kind of sheath, wood, leather, etc. I told him just finish it and lets not be concerned with a sheath. He agreed.

Thanks guys!
 
that is a sweet looking knife a knife like that should have a name what does Kyle call it
 
Simply gorgeous. Whether you stick with it or change it, it's fine by me, but "Ozark Tanto" gave me a good laugh. Not two words I would have ever expected to see together. Thank you and great work! Mike

P.S. Really think you should have "Ozark Tanto" in the title.:D
