This is a wide hunter made with 1/4" by 1 3/4" thick 5160 flat grind and edge hardened.
The 4" blade from ricaaso to point along the cutting edge is tapered up for a more narrow point. The 4" handle has jigged bone, brass pins and brass lined lanyard hole. The blade is finished to 120 grit, then scotchbrite and gun blue finish for a rustic look. It's a great companion to the Ruger Bisley 41 magnum. Thanks for looking.

Nice picture Scott.I really like the looks of that hunter and the wide blade.
 
Thanks Stumpy. I'm excited about this one because this was a complete in house job. I usually outsource my heat treat (still have to with D2 & A2) but with the 5160 I did an edge hardening with a torch. It felt real good to do the hole job myself. :) Here's another pic zoomed in a little. I'm experimenting with my camera. :D
