One just like this one here, helped me to get my J.S. rating at this year's Blade Show. That one, however, had stainless fittings, and this one has "Black Glass" hot blued steel fittings. In fact, the butt cap is so much like a black mirror, I could not, for the life of me, figure out how to photograph it.
The 6 1/4" false edged blade was forged down from heavy 5160 stock, selectively hardened, and given an 800 grit satin hand rubbed finish.
On this one, I highly polished and buffed the beautiful African Blackwood handle.
11 1/2 inches over all!
Available at this year's Ohio Classic!

Karl, that is outstanding! I love the blued fittings up against the blackwood, very dark and classy.

Nice work.
