Thought I'd post this one here as I have the two that were made before it. This one completes an order of three.

It's 5/32" CPM154 heat treated and LN cyro'd in-shop, full flat grind, balanced tang, black spacers, Arizona Desert Ironwood burl, acraglas securing everything, and custom leather sheath also made in-shop. The initials on the reverse side are at the customer's request.

Sorry about the poor picture quality. I had to use kitchen flourescent lighting as it was dark when I got around to taking pictures and my light box is at the shop. I wanted to snap pics before it gets delivered tomorrow.

Here's the three that completed this order:

The middle knife is actually the customer's, and he ordered the top and bottom knives for his sons.

I have made my opinion well known on the forum that desert ironwood and steel should not be used in any combination and posted on this website unless it is being sent to me. I hope this clarifies this issue... as everyone can see by the pictures we do not want this combination in the hands of your typicaly everyday knife nut, god only knows what will happen to this country if this practice continues.

Very sweet
 
Beautifully done, Nathan. Soon I will be sneaking 'round your shop for some HT help. Oh yeah, I found the lid to that quench pot.
 
Beautiful design, Beautiful materials, Beautiful execution... Just plain BEAUTIFUL!!
 
Wow Nathan! That is an amazing looking blade, excellent finish and comfortable design!
