Hey guys. Hope everyone is doing well! Its been a while since I posted a knife, but I don't have much planned for the rest of summer, so hopefully I'll be able to knock some more out!

I had some fun with decorative pins on this one, and think it came out pretty cool. I made this one with a nice natural patina in mind:thumbup:

This is a little different than my normal kawiken design, it's a little longer and less tapered at the end.

I'm Asking $130 shipped inside the US for this one

Specs:
OAL-6 3/4"
Blade Length-2 7/8"
Steel-1/8" Hatachi #2 blue heat treated to 61-62 HRC by Peters Heat Treating
Handle Material-Ariona desert ironwood with g10 and micarta pins and g10 tubes
Sheath-Leather Pocket Sheath made by my dad








As always, thanks for looking! I'd love to hear what you think:thumbup:

That's a very nice looking knife and sheath. I like your choice of steel and I like the grind on this. Very creative pattern on the handle and the sheath looks excellently made.

I'm more of a simple guy meaning if you were to do a solid grey or black micarta handle and left the tooling off on the front of the sheath, I'd be all over this.

Well done! Keep up the excellent work and value that time with your Dad.
 
Hello young master knife maker,in my humble opinion don't do this anymore,the "clean"lines are disturbed,but,the craftsmanship is as alway's IMPECCABLE from both you and "the dad',regards!
 
LOVING the dots along the scales!
 
looks are subjective, and beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I prefer it without the dots. to me they look like the do not belong and to me do not add to the beauty of the knife. Love the steel choice. kudos for trying to be different, but this is one that i would have to pass on. Others have stated they like it so take my comment for what it's worth.
