A scrap of O1 forged into a 4.25" blade with quench finish, wearing a canvas micarta bolster/guard, copper spacer, and local Euonymus/Burning Bush handle. Perched on a larger section of limb from the apple tree I THOUGHT I'd grabbed the cut/dried wood from! Turns out Euonymus is a pretty neat handle material, but this was totally a happy accident.

(Edited to correct wood species!)
