Happy new year! 
I thought I would share my first knife of 2014.
If they all come out this nice, 2014 is going to be a great year!
This is an XL version of my popular Nosferatu tanto/kwaiken.
This is the largest Nosferatu that I have made to date, but really like this size.
The tang is tapered and skeletonized, resulting in a balance point just ahead of the start of the wrap.
Thanks for looking!
- 11.5" OAL
- 6.5" Actual Cutting Edge
- CPM 154 at 60HRC
- Bat Menuki
- Epoxy impregnated nylon lace wrap
- Full length swedge
- Hand rubbed satin finish
