Blade Length: 3 1/4"
Overall Length: 7 1/2"
Handle: Some type of Burl Wood (bought it from WSSI in their bargain bin at Blade)
Pin: Mosaic
Guard: 416SS
Sheath: Leather, also made by me

Thanks for looking,
Sean

Very nice! I like the hidden tang. And the "some type of wood" is gorgeous! I'm guessing amboyna.

That's a beautiful knife. :thumbup:

It's knice of you to let yourself keep one home.

Very nice

I particulary like the bevel at the starting point of the edge

 

[Sean O'Hare]

Thanks everyone.

Roger - I don't think it is Amboyna I would have remembered that one but you are right it is very similar. I'll have to send the pic to Mike at WSSI and see if he can figure out what it is.
