Here is the latest hunter I have just finished.
SPECS: BL 5", 130mm. OAL 10 5/8", 272mm. Forged 1084 Carbon steel. Sculptured stainless steel guard, bronze and G10 spacers. African blackwood handle, domed pin, tooled leather sheath.
This handle is the most comfortable i have made imo
Thanks for looking and comments welcome.
Also posted in the for sale section :)


 
The knife is well finished as well as the beautiful sheat.... and the material choice is spot on!
The only thing that looks strange (but it could be just the picture) is the spine curvature not apparently flowing with the handle...looks like there could be still steel to skim from the middle part of the spine to cancel the "broken back" effect given the hump protruding higher than the projected line forward from the handle's back.
In many pictures this is just a distortion from the lens anyway.
 
smooth moves
 
Masterpiece. Beauty is in the simplicity, something which unfortunately rarely managed to achieve.
 
Thanks for the comments guys. Bigfattyt it is looking for a new home in the for sale area :)
Cheers Keith
