So here's one i just finished. The blade is w1, 1084, and nickle. I made the lanyard bead all the fittings from 1084 and nickle. The spacer is nickle silver, and the handle is sambar stag.

thanks for looking
 
Now that is one more good looking blade,I know youre proud of that one:thumbup::thumbup:Regards Butch
 
although it is probably too pretty to be a user, I am curious how does the steel perform with the nickle added? stunning knife
 
nickle dosent harden, that's why the bands are so thin, and before twisting i added the thicker w1 pieces. thats the wide bands of black you see.

i wouldnt go chopping rocks with it, but it'll do what a knife is made to do .....cut, anything farther than that, and you'd probably be using the wrong tool.... it's not a prybar :)
