Hi All,
This knife has a 12 1/4" 1095 blade with a nice hamon. The blade was progressively sanded through all the grits , stopping at 2000 grit. It was then hand polished with 3M polishing paper up to 8000 grit. The spine is 3/16's at the guard with a distal grind. The clam shell S-guard is N.S., and the 5 1/2" sambar stag handle has wraught iron and NS work. It balances at the plunge line. Hope you like
