Any comments are, as always, appreciated. :-)

The blade is 1084/15n20, about 150 layers, in what I call tiger stripe twist. The guard is o2/l6, 10 layers, in Gordian's knot pattern. The handle is black paper micarta, with a mosaic pin.

Thanks for looking!

Very nice!!! Where did you score the O2 and whose version L6 are you using?
 
I saw them make that knife on forged in fire last season. Nice copy. OMG! I'm so kidding! !
I will say that's less knife and much more work of art. That would look incredible on display on a desk or wall. I don't think I could use anything that pretty to cut anything messy.
Great job. Flawless.

If I heard the term "Fighter" to describe the style of knife for the very first time. this knife would be in my "minds eye"!

Impressive!

That grind is sick. It almost looks double-edged. I bet it could do damage both coming and going.
 
Very nice work on that one Phillip. I love that tiger stripe Damascus and the shape of the blade, awesome grinds, beautifully finished off with the black paper micarta and mosaic pin. Another winner!!
 
SWEEEEE-KED!!!


For some reason, when I saw the pictures "sweet" and "wicked" popped into my head at the same time and that's what my mind's ears heard.
