I made this one based loosely on a kershaw model, very loosely.

This is 1075 steel with a nice hamon. The hamon is more bold in reality than the pictures make out.

The spine has a nice file pattern.

The dimensions are as follows.

Blade - (tip to handle) 5 1/2"

OAL - 10 1/2"

Steel is 3/16ths thick.

The handle is curly maple that is stained to show the figure. It is held in place with 4 pins, one handmade mosaic, and a lanyard hole.

The sheath is hand stitched leather.

Price - $140 shipped. I accept paypal to mlwbailey@yahoo.com or check or money order. (I prefer paypal)

wow - that is nice! it won't last long...

i need to contact you about a little brother to that one - about 8 1/2" o/a :thumbup:

Somebody snag this and put me out of my misery :D
 
Very good solid sturdy knives and razor sharp, cut extremely well.

I agree with GL on the pricing.

That's about my sweet spot for pricing, the knives, sheaths and prices like Matt's, GL Drew, NWA Nick, Phillip Patton and a couple others that allow me to buy more than one knife and keep me coming back for more and keep supporting their knife making.

Plus they are great guys to work with making a knife your going to like, if it's not posted here on BF.

Anyone heard anything from :confused: Mike Wilson :confused: for a while I don't think his email is working?

I just a knife nut, cheers :thumbup:
 

i agree. great size for a working knife and excellent price point.

check that fileworked spine. ;)
 
Milton, the knife is yours.

Thanks for the fast action on the paypal. I will have it in the mail on monday.

All others: Thanks for all the comments. I appreciate the compliments from both accomplished makers, and avid collectors/knife nuts.
 
Another beautifully executed knife. If you decide to make another like this one put my name down.
