Hasn't been sharpened and the sheath hasn't been made. But you guys get the picture. Its 9 3/4in long overall with a 5in. 3/16 thick blade of O1 57rc. Hollow ground. The handle is elk and I think it turned out quite nice! Thanks for lookin!

Very nice indeed! I like the domed pin and the brass fixtures!

I liked it so much I bought it . I have been looking for a knife like this for ever & there are none out around. It will match the grips on my Ruger .45 Colt.
 
This is one that the more I look at it the more I like it.
At first glance, I said, "Chunky" and I usually don't like chunky...then I kind of tipped my head to the side and looked some more...it all works really well together, the proportions are really nice. It's got flow. Chunky flow, but like a big sexy woman, it's really fine.
Great finish (gotta love polished O1!) and I think O1 at 57 is a highly practical treat for an outdoor knife.
Congrats!

Thanks elementfe! I will take that as a compliment! I guess! I like big sexy wemen too! It is indeed a handfull. And as I explained to the coustomer, this knife was a product of a left over piece of stock. As knifemakers we make what we want or have orders for. This was just a piece I worked on here and there with no real direction or intent. I just allowed it to make itself! It all came together pretty effortlessly, with no stress or deadline. And I think as I stated in the original post. It turned out very nicely! Thanks for lookin!

Just thought id throw a couple of pics of the sheath up for those of you that might want to see it. This ones just about ready to send out. Thanks for your business Mr. M. Its been a pleasure!
 
If this knife works half as good as it looks I will be very happy. Can"t wait to get it!
