Let me know what you think.

Ivan,

I think this is really nice. Looks like it would be comfortable in the hand. Blade looks great too. The sheath I think need to be longer so the blade can be more secure. Did you make this?? What type of steel is it?? hardness?? and how much??? Thanks

Thanks, Liong

I made that one out of K-100 tool steel, wich is very tough, highly stain resistant and holds an edge likes 440V. Its handle is made of resin soaked cord with two ivory colored ray skin slabs. The sheath is cloth lined Concealex to protect the blade from scratching and has a "J" belt hook that works in a similar fashion to james Piorek´s Static Cord (tm). It´s not made for upside down use but I can make those, too.
I´ll place this picture along with some others and it´s data and prices later today at the For Sale forum, as I believe it´s more apropriate to talk about prices there. I have 4 K-100 blades and two Talonite ones ready to go.
Best regards

Ivan, another fine piece!
The grind along the top though looks a tad sharpedged where it drops down but other than that I like the looks and nice grinding on the blade as well!
