This was a challenging but fun build. It's the smallest and slimmest hidden tang fixed blade I've made by far. I had to make all the assembly hardware from scratch and get a little creative with it but really happy with how it turned out.

The blade is 3" long of 1084/15n20 Damascus and features my "twisted" filework on the spine. It is only .140" thick at the ricasso with drastic distal taper all the way to the point. The fileworked collar and spacer are polished black g-10. Bronze accent piece. The handle is carved/textured African blackwood. Overall length is 7" and weight is 2.4 ounces.







 
What a cool piece! Fixed blades this size are always more attractive to me. I would love to EDC something of yours someday. :)

You have exceptional artistry in all your work. This latest piece hammers that home. :cool:
