I forged out some cable damascus a while ago, and because I used cable that I salvaged, I was not sure how well it would harden. I had the piece laying around for some time until I decided to make san mai with it. I used Cruforge V for the core steel, because I know that stuff cuts like the dickens. The flats are left with the forge scale on them, because I like how it looks.
The handle is jigged bone. I jigged it myself and aged it to provide nice contrast. I really like this stuff and have been using it quite a bit. It is held in place with pins and G-Flex epoxy. It is a comfortable 3 finger grip.
The sheath is 8-9oz hand tooled leather from Wickett and Craig. The knife slides in nicely and holds securely.
Dimensions
Blade - 3 5/8" tip to handle
OAL - 7 1/8"
Price - $200 shipped to US. I prefer paypal, but will accept check or money order.
The first to post here "I'll take it!" gets it.
