Just finished this one up, but i had to use an old camera for the pics so there horrible:(

Its made of 312 layers of 15n20, and 1084 which i twisted a few times throughout the welding of it

. The guard spacer and blade all came from the same billet. The knife is 10 7/8'' o.a., and the blade is 6 1/4'' tip to guard. The spine is 3/16'' at the plunge, and tapers toward the tip.

I flat ground the blade and then just slightly convexed the edge only. It has been etched and cold blued to give more contrast to the pattern.

The handle is african black wood with a 3/32'' nickle silver pin.

Price w/sheath is $270 shipped

thanks alot, the pattern came out fairly well, though not much rhyme or reason to it, due to the way it was forged.

a guy on another forum called it finger print pattern, i thought it was kind of suiting for it.

thanks
