This knife is a first for me. It's the first finished knife out of my new shop and the first of 2025. It is hand forged from 80CrV2. Balance point is right at the front of the handle. Sorry, no time for fancy pictures but you get the idea. You might catch a peek of the hammered copper butt plate in the linked video. Comments welcomed.



Blade Steel: Forged 80CrV2, radiused spine and choil, finished to 800X
Blade Length: 7.5" edge
Handle: Semi-Wa, Stabilized African Blackwood / Stabilized Spalted Beech with copper spacers, domed copper pin and hammered copper butt plate
OAL: 12.5"

That's one beautiful knife!
I'm loving that handle though. The materials, the faceting, it's perfect.
