Forged hunter with East Indian rosewood

[J. Doyle]

Here's the next one off the list. This will be a user and was requested to be as simple as possible. I really like this knife. The lack of some of the embellishments is what appeals to me about this one. For a larger hunter, it's very light and thin and disappears in my hand.

Forged from 1084
9" overall with 4" of cutting edge, .180" at the ricasso
Heavily rounded spine and ricasso
The handle is just a hair under 1/2" thick at the guard
German silver guard and pin
Contoured handle of East Indian rosewood

Great execution John, clean and simple. Perfect!

That's a beauty, John. I really like how the hamon lines up with the bottom edge of the handle, makes a nice visual "line".
