Here's the first of the run of knives I mentioned here about a month ago. All five slots are filled but I would consider doing another run in the future. While being the same design these aren't limited to the same materials so there will be some interesting variants in the next four. This one is 1075 with hamon, stainless guard and feather-crotch walnut handle. About a 5.5 inch blade, and 10.25 overall. The sheath is leather lined kydex with a tech-lock belt attachment and Biothane webbing retention strap. Thanks for looking...let me know what you think!

Lots of knife in a small package. Beautifully done. A prime candidate for one of your carbon fiber handles.
 
Love it. I've always had a soft spot for a small, stout fighter. Well done.
 
Maybe someday I make something like You. I don´t mind if I never get to your level but something, after ears of hard training and study off course. I´m now intern in Roselli:joyous:
And what I think you ask, that is great piece y got there, piece worth of gold:thumbup:.
 
Always rewarding to see creations become reality from the ole drawing board. Something as seemingly simple as a knife proves to be a great challenge I am finding. Appreciate the fact you have talent Ben, it is very apparent to me.
