Picked up 2 of these babies off ebay from a fella that has Watson make them for him so he can sell them for a slight profit on ebay. These are dropped point forged 1095 Rc58/59, osage handle and spalted maple handle. Nice leather pouch style sheaths one fancy and one plain. Makers mark on left side of blade and nice an crisp.
These 2 particular knives have a distal taper to the blade and full flat grinds with a forged integral guard for the fore finger to rest in. The handles taper from the front at the ricasso to the back where it is bigger. For smaller hunters they are extremely comfortable to hold. I say small only in the fact that they are 4" blades which is about .5" shorter than the CS Master Hunter I have used forever. I can't post pics here but trust me on this I have not seen better hunters forged from to many bladesmiths. Oh yea sharp too. Anyways I love'em and can't wait to use one and the other I'll save. keepem sharp
