Here's the groom's knife for the wedding set I've been working on. Some of you may have seen a couple of the blacksmith's knives for the groomsmen. The hammer forged flats tie in with the blacksmith theme of the set. Here are the specs: 4 1/8 inch 1075 blade, ss guard w/bronze fileworked spacer, ironwood handle.
Thanks for lookin', comments/critique welcome.

The handle is comfortable in the edge-up grip as well

Nice work Ben! That is a sweet looking hunter. :D Thanks for showing it. Keep up the great work my friend.
 
Super nice package. What a great gift idea, and brilliant result! Sheath really sets it off. :thumbup:
 
Great looking hunter Ben!
That other Seward guy is getting pretty handy with the leather too....
 
That really turned out great Ben. Mr David is getting a name for himself. Good job.
 
Cool hunter, Ben. And, what a nice package. The forged flats work well here. Somebody's goin' be happy.

Wow! That is a looker. The dark flats bring it all together to make a beautiful knife. The leather is something special also. Great work!
 
That is a very handsome knife and a super nice sheath to go with it. I assume the clip is not sharp?
 
Not sharp on this one, Roger. The raised clip makes a nice seat for the index finger...naturally you wouldn't want to cut yourself there.
 
^^^ That's what I would have expected, Ben, but you never know for sure if you don't ask. Really nice work.
 
I really like everything on this knife.
Perfectly packaged Hunter.
Great work, Ben and David, and thanks for showing.

Great looking knife and beautiful leatherwork! I'm especially found of the handle ergonomics.
 
I like this a lot Ben. Looks like some novel contouring on that handle. Can we see some close ups and a spine view, or is it on the groom's belt? :)
