Hello to All, This is a pattern I have had since about the turn of the Century. Love George Herrons classic style knives. This is not an exact copy of one of his, but I think you can see the influence. I tried to build the sheath in somewhat of a classic style as well.
Hope you all like it and comments welcome.

Blade is CPM 154 .145 thick and 3.4 tip to guard. O/A is 8 in. I heat treat with cryo and double tempered.
hand finished to 2000 grit. Tang is tapered and hollow ground with 10 in wheel as is Blade.

Guard is 416 pinned and very carefully silver soldered with NO!! pin holes. I leaver the point of the guard a little thicker so it doesn't wear out the cam.

Handle is Ivory Micarta held tight with 416 corby rivets. Liners are .019 thick. Lanyard hole is brass.

Sheath is hand stitched 8-9 ounce leather built in a more traditional style than I normally do. The dye is light brown and will lighten a little more when dry. I used the Loveless cam lock idea so the knife fits very snug yet is easy to withdraw.

Asking (sold) shipped in the USA. Paypal is warrencustomknives@yahoo.com

Thank you for having a look. Alan

Thank you Aspinto, I too have appreciated Georges work over the years, and have seen some of his work at the Oregon knife show.
His work looks and feels great in hand.
Thanks again and will mark it sold for you.
 
This is the second knife of yours that I have purchased and I have to say that the quality of your work is up to par with some
of the best in the business. Thanks again Alan!

beautiful Alan Warren , I think I like that simple sheath better than your others . Of course I am weird and different and that may have an influence .
Great package .
 
Thanks Jack, I think you may be on to something with the sheath. A lot of Folks dont like the fancy sheath. I may be doing more of the classic sheaths at least with the Classic style knives.
 
Hey Alan, I received your knife today... it is even better in hand than it looked in the photos! Beautiful workmanship on this knife!
Thank you
