This is one of the FKUK knives, with a fully sharpened double edge and a Koyote Girl sheath.
Overall length is 11 1/4 inches with a 5 7/8 inch blade. 1/8 inch 1080 steel, convex grinds for both edges. Smoothed forge finish on the blade.
The handle is generous and fairly thick, caramel micarta with blued steel pins. Tang and spine are blued as well.
The sheath is an Explorer model, done by Sierra (Koyote Girl) - fully double needle hand stitched, double seamed, and bombproof.
Asking price of $180, shipped, paypal, money order, checks, barrels of gasoline, all good.

I did a Micarta knife.
Mad dog has done some of these and I see them floating around a collector table at the Reno Gun Show all the time. There's things about the MD ones I don't really like (and a lot of things I do love!) , so I had to make one of my own!
It's micarta. It's industrial linen micarta, but it's micarta- not metal. So the edge profile is really steep and not designed for continuous slicing (though it does a fair job on lunchmeat stuff) It is a bit over 1/4 inch thick on the spine of the blade (3/8 through the handle) with a distal taper and a convex blade shape. It's a basic low profile stabbing spearpoint.
The length of the blade is 3 7/8 inches with an overall length of 8 inches.
The sheath is a deep pouch "bag" sheath, no belt loops or extra thickness or protrusions.
Asking $80, shipped. I gather these are illegal some places, so be cognizant of your state or local laws, I guess.

Pretty different!
