D Guard

[B . Buxton]

I had a gentleman contact me last winter that does civil war reinactments, he asked if I could make him a D guard using damascus, this is what I came up with. 585 layers- OAL- 15 1/2" blade 10 1/4". handle is stabilized maple burl and the guard is made from the same 585 damascus. Top clip is sharp also.

Thanks for lookin,

Bill

I love D-guards, and this one is a beauty.

Bill, beautiful knife, great lines. I can't believe a civil war re-enactor will be using it on the field. I have seen what they do to equipment. I have done the explosions of the field - the closer the shot throwing more mud and debris on them, the better they love it. By the way did I say it was a beautiful knife...

 

[SteelSlaver]

Yes it is a beautiful knife. Well done.

I apologize for not reposting on this sooner, the wife and I went out of town for a few days and when we returned I forgot (senior moment) about this thread.

Anyway, I just want to say thank you to everyone for all the nice comments.
