Howdy, folks. After a fairly dismal show, I have quite a few knives for you, of which this is the first. This is the most complicated knife I have built to date. I did an extensive work in progress on Bladeforums and Knifedogs showing how this knife went together. There are 11 separate pieces. Here's the WIP for those who want to see the process.

The knife is a frame handle hunter, my 300th knife. The blade is CM154 stainless at RC 60 with a 400 grit hand finish. My heat treat, with dry ice cryo. The guard and frame are mild steel treated with plum brown. The liners are 410 stainless and fileworked all the way around. The handles are Sambar stag. OAL is about 8 1/2" with a 3.75" blade. The sheath is my work as well, right handed. Price is $500. I had Jim Cooper of SharpByCoop shoot this one, and I've included a few of my pictures as well.
