This one is still available with new pictures because i forgot to list the name and date on the first post.

Chopper, forged closest to the shape from 1/3" thick 5160 steel bar.
Not too heavy, but still powerful tool with great balance and nice taper, and i'm sure it will be great tool for any outdoors activity.
Flats are left raw, soaked in vinegar and wire brushed after forging.
After heat treatment, flats are brushed with scotch brite.
Bevels are brushed with scotch brite.

Handmade 4mm thick (10 oz) vegetable tanned leather sheath, vertical right hand carry.

Details:

Overall length - 14,25"
Blade length - 9"
Blade width - 1,7"
Thickness at the touchmark - 15/64"
Tang is tapered to 5/64" at the end

Chopper weights 14,8oz, and with sheath is 20,8oz

Handle material: Vintage canvas micarta, black G10 liners, brass Corby bolts and lanyard tube.
