You are new to BF but this is not your first knife. Quite elegant. Thank you for posting it here for us all to see.
Do you grind the blade from bar stock ? full flat grind or hollow ? very thin slicer or a bit thicker all round go for it grind ?
Is the edge sharp ?
i'm looking forward to hearing back.
thanks, kj
 
Hey KJ, you are correct. I exclusively sold my works locally for a few years, but this summer i decided to go online with my knives because i think i am bordering on the brink of exhausting the local market.
I do all of my knives by stock removal, but one day hope to get into forging. At this point i don't have the time or the space. This knife is flat ground from 1/8" stock and has a 17 degree, thin slicing edge because i dont expect a knife this "dressy" to see a bunch of hard use. This is a scaled down version of my "Gent's Hunter" model, which you all will be seeing more of in the near future. At the moment, I am backlogged with a largish batch of local commisions, so i may be slow to get them here to BF, but Ill make sure to squeeze one out for sale here as often as I can. Thanks for the comment, and it is very nice to meet you, KJ.

Kind regards,
Spencer
 
beautiful. love the ivory micarta/nickel silver combo very elegant
 
Spencer, thanks for the details about the blade grind. BF'ers for the most part are more knowledgeable about knives than the general public. As such we like to know details like steel type, grind, heat treatment, Rc, 'pull' meaning amount of force needed to open the blade (for folders), etc. when considering a knife purchase. Usually including this information will help you with a sale.
I am at the stage of life that requires me to pass along my customs rather than acquire more but still i do look forward to seeing more of your knives posted here.
Best of Luck to you, kj
 
Thanks guys for the kind words, and thanks KJ for the guidance. I am looking forward to my stay here on BF.
