Here is a Dagger that is similar to the one featured in Blade mag. What a fun grind this one is. Hope you like it.

The blade is of 154cm .187 thick 7.125 long and o/a is 11.8 in. The hardness is right at 60 rc.

The handle is a partial cased or framed handle of Giraffe bone with mommouth and ancient walrus ivory spacers.

The guard is of 416 stainless pinned and soldered. The pammel is of 7075 aircraft aluminum for balance.

THe sheath is of 9-10 ounce leather hand tooled and hand stitched by me.

Asking $1095.00 paypal or money order $20.00 shipping conus. Thanks for looking.
 
Alan: Great work there - I love the symmetry of the grinds and the selection of materials. On your next knife, I can send you some of my stabilized Taliban leg bone if you run out of the giraffe - it's a real hit with the buyers. :D

Another beautiful work of art Alan, I'm sure glad that you make a B&T every once in a while at a price point that allows more people to get ahold of one of your knives. Once again impeccable work.
 
Oh, HELL! Dammit, Al....I can't afford to collect ALL the damn knives that I want! This piece REALLY shows your craftsmanship, symmetry and class. I am impressed!

Thanks again Guys for your comments. Because I haven't been able to get to the shows around the country, the Forums is the next best thing to show what I am doing about 80 hours a week. Not only do I have this crazy passion/sickness for making knives, it is how I keep the bills paid. It's great that you all are looking and commenting so thanks again. Alan
