Thank you very much, it certainly was a challenge to build. You may like to consider the new models I build now the F.M.P (Farid Mehr Performance) or the K2-S slip joint.An incredible knife. It might be one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. I admire your effort. I also have the K2 you designed for Spyderco. One of my favorite knives.
Hi everyone, I remember a time I started this insane project to build an all integral hollow handle made from D6 tool steel which has an integral Tsuba, it was actually built over a two year period, it took a total of 32 working days to complete, it took a long time due to the size of my engineering machinery but I managed it, I also built the cap from grade 5 titanium.
The Tsuba is mirror polished all around. This piece of D6 tool steel started at 28.8lb.
I hope you will all enjoy the pictures.
