Just finished this one. I made the sheath as well. Your thoughts are welcomed.


Blade length: 5.5"
AOL: 11"
Steel: 1/4" 80CrV2
Handle: War Wood

Very impressive! I like it alot

 

[Don Nguyen]

Big fan of the tapers.

 

[Kevin Jones]

Very well done.
The handle sculpting is especially nice. Very comfortable in hand I'm sure.
The tapered tang is well executed and really adds IMO.

Obviously a lot of thought went into the design. I agree completely with the concensus here on your handle contouring--remarkable. You didn't say who made the sheath, but I especially appreciate the boxed/creased belt loop treatment. Flat-stitched "loops" on sheaths never ride quite right on a belt, but that design looks like a winner to me--very innovative. :thumbup:

Thank you Will. I made the sheath.

What is War Wood?

[i4Marc]

Dozier,

Thanks. War Wood is made from corn cob and fibers in a plant resin binder. It is all natural and non-toxic. War Wood is also tough as it is used in armor plating of military vehicles. Here is the link:
