Fighter for BLADE

[DesRosiers]

Never made a fighter before but thought I'd take a stab at it for the show. It was alot of fun and I think I'll be making more. This one is 5160 and has an African Blackwood handle, stainless guard.

Thanks for looking!

Very nice.
Like the raised clip and especially the handle profile.
Handles seem to be the hardest thing for new makers to master.
IMO, you've done just that here.

Thankyou! Spent a bit of time in his shop, hopefully I learned something besides how to spear crocogators and blowgun cats

Very nice.

Thanks...I married one of the best handle contour guys out there IMHO and he's been teaching me the tricks o' the trade, he doesn't even charge me for lessons, what a guy!!

The photo taking is a learning process I've just begun, thanks for the input!
