This double guard fighter is hand forged out of 52100 bar. My design and all work done by me.

Blade: 52100, HT and cryo, RHC 59-60, Distal taper from 3/16 at ricasso to 1/8 just behind tip, Convex grind, 4.5 inches tip to guard.
Handle: Ironwood, 4.25 inches from front of guard to pommel, mortised tang
Guard and pin: 416 SS, hardened
Sheath: 9-10 oz. leather, hand tooled and wet formed to knife, lizard skin inlay. Retainer is made of concealex, designed so knife can be drawn without releasing snap. The retainer is held to the sheath with a Chicago screw so it could be changed without dismantling the entire sheath.
Price: $200.00 Paypal and shipping included to US.
First “I’ll take it” gets a winner.

Thanks for looking.

That's looks like an enormous amount of knife for the money. Nicely done :thumbup:
 
Thanks T1mpani,
I'm trying to get some recognition here. Been selling some local and through some stores. Need to pay for my new camera that I bought so I could sell more knives to pay for supplies and so on!

This showed up today---tremendous amount of knife for the money; even grinds and high fit/finish.

The retention system honestly had me a little concerned in description but in person it works just as advertised: held it upside down and shook it as hard as I could for almost a minute and the knife stayed put (doesn't even wiggle) but put it on a belt and give it a hard tug and it's out and ready. Obviously, undoing the snap makes it easier to get out and would be my preference at pretty much all times, but true to the fact that this is a "fighter" by design, fast draw is available, and doesn't seem to compromise retention in the least. Sheath is built like a tank, too.

Nice job all way 'round :thumbup:
