Basket Weave Sub Hilt

[Bill Behnke]

I had some material left over from the Basket Weave Bowie that I finished a few weeks ago and thought I'd make this sub hilt. The blade is 4 3/4" in length and the overall length is 9 1/2". The fittings and pin are 416 SST, all engraved by Dave Lark. The handle material is stabilized Black Walnut. The pattern in the blade is much tighter (naturally) than the Bowie as it's much narrower. I also blued the blade for better contrast.
