Double edged fighter w/ copper habaki & 1940's redwood burl handle

[Allen Newberry]

I have posted this knife in W.I.P.s before. However, this picture was taken by Chuck Ward so you can see a little better what the knife actually looks like.




This one has a double edged hollow ground blade of 1095. The habaki is made of copper and the handle is made of redwood burl that was unusually dense and was cut in the 1940's.

This knife has been donated to be raffled off at the 2011 Arkansas Custom Knife Show.

Allen,

You already know I like this knife, and Chuck's photo really shows it off well. Someone will be very happy at the show next year.
