In June I had this real bad craving to obtain another fixed blade. I had my eyes on a certain piece of eye candy! What I wanted couldn't be had ~ so I contacted the maker. This is what we came up with:
<CENTER>Overall length: 12.75 inches...........</CENTER>
<CENTER>
</CENTER>
<CENTER>8" of Nick Smolen Ladder Pattern carbon damascus (75% 5160 and 25% 203E) ~ can we say, please put one of those sharpened false edges on it!</CENTER>
<CENTER>
</CENTER>
<CENTER>4.75 inches of handle and guard/pommel. The scales are polished mammoth ivory scales that are pinned over a hidden tang. The handle is accented with a Mike Sakmar twist mokume (copper and nickel/silver only, leaving out the brass) guard and pommel.</CENTER>
<CENTER>
</CENTER>
<CENTER>David Broadwell worked his magic to provide me with a another Fighter that I wanted!</CENTER>
Wanna talk about "fast?" I can't tell yet....unable to see the speed thru my teary eyes......
