Revisited one of my old patterns from the nineties for this build. Inspired by Tommy Lee's work I saw and handled at the very first Australian Knifemakers Guild show in 1993. This style of knife remained very popular with Australian makers for many years and I still enjoy making them.

Blade is hollow ground from CPM154 and has a full tapered tang. Corby bolts are stainless and the extra long bolsters are 416 stainless. Scales are natural Sambar with black fiber liners.

Over all length is 9 1/2". Hope to have the bolsters engraved in the next couple of weeks. Thanks for looking.
