Good Afternoon,
Here is something a bit different from my usual stuff.
This blade is made from 1/4" Go Mai. It is an 80CRV2 core, pure Nickle and on the outside is wrought iron from a 100 year old ship chain.
The handle is is an Eland leg bone which has been professionally dyed and stabilized and a white paper micarta spacer. The bone is filled with west system epoxy reinforced with colloidal silica. If you are not familiar with the silica additive its to epoxy what rebar is to concrete. The soldered guard is bus bar copper and the butt cap is wrought iron. The butt cap is threaded on and then the tang was peened over.
The weight is 9 ounces and the balance point is right behind the guard.
The sheath is made from 7-8 ounce leather and set up for right hand.
Price SOLD, shipping is included to continental United States via USPS.
Blade Steel: 1/4" Go Mai
Grind: Full Flat with fullers
Blade: 5 9/16" Tip to the front of the guard
Handle Material: Bone, copper, micarta and wrought iron
Overall Length: 10 3/8"
Sheath: 7-8 ounce leather
