Not sure what to call this, I guess an S-Guard fighter. More of a traditional look with 1018, and wrought iron fittings, and a red stag handle. The blade is 1084, which was clay quenched, and hand rubbed out to show the hammon.

O.A. is approximately 16 1/4''. The blade was forged from 1/4'' x 1 1/4'' stock. The guard was forged as well. All pith was removed from the handle and the entire thing was poured solid with epoxy.
