classy chopper

[atakach]

I forged this from 1084, and it was clay quenched. The handle is some nicely figured Black Walnut. The guard is a hand textured copper, and there is a 1010 and copper spacer on the handle as well.

The butt of the handle is also carved and textured, just to add a little extra to the piece. The are also a few forging pits and hammer dings in the blade, but thats the look i was going for.....

Measures 16 5/8'' over all, and has about 10 3/4'' of cutting edge. The blade is 1 1/2'' at the widest point.

Price is $275 comes with soft zipper case sheath x-tra
