This is a swayback recurve in cocobolo.

The steel is 1095 that has been clay quenched for a nice hamon. The spine is fully fileworked.

The bolster is G10 and the handle is cocobolo

The sheath is leather, and I used my new belt loop that allows for ambidexterous horizontal and vertical carry.

Dimensions
Blade - 5 1/4" tip to bolster
OAL - 10 1/2"

Price - *sold*shipped in CONUS. I prefer paypal, but will accept check and money order

The first "I'll take it!" gets it.

Matt, nice knife! The hamon really pops out (as always). I really like the belt loop design. It looks like an "H"- ever think about calling it an "H style belt loop"?
 
Thanks Bob. The cocobolo on this one is really nice stuff. The loop is like an H. The belt can go through either horizontally or vertically on either side. It works well. Guess I will have to call it an H style belt loop, now. This one is very sharp, I liked it better than the other recurve that went a few days ago. I am a little surprised the other went first.
 
I agree, I love the hamon! Looks awesome! Another one I'd like to add to the collection.....oh well, for the future.

It is yours Lost Dog.

Thanks, I will email you info in a few seconds.
 
Sorry you didn't have this one in Cambridge, Matt. Great looking knife. Love the blade shape and the cocobolo.

I love these knives, just didn't really like the cocobolo though. I'll be on the edge of my seat for what you come up with next. Dunno if I'm prepared to custom order or not with my current funds, so I'll just wait for the next post.
 
I wish I would've found this forum before this thing sold. I would love to have one like/similar. You do very nice work!
