beautiful job there Bruce. what did you use for the handle? what steel for the blade? etc.....

 

[Bruce Bump]

Thanks, the handle is black canvas micarta and the blade is twist pattern 1084 15n20 and pure nickel. The double guard is nickel silver

That's very nice Bruce. Those symetrical daggers are a pain to make. I've made one in my life and don't want to make another.

I like the challenge. I have another one that is better but I cant seem to make the image small enough to post it.

Bruce, After editing the photo on my photo software ,I hit the "email photo" . It asks the size for the image and I pick 50K. I just save the attachment and close the email. The photo is in my documents and already the right size for posting.

BTW - Nice knife !

Very nice work Bruce. matching the symmetrical grind with the fuller had to be quite a challenge.

Thanks for the continued inspiration!

Great work. A creative piece can be a pleasure to make after so many hunters.
