its finished up
ironwood burl dovetailed into integral cpm10v blade
hardness 61-62rc and belt finished
the blade is just over 5.5 inch and over all length of just under 10.5
its going to paul for a nice set up pants
i think i will get into more knives like this now that ihave a bridgeport mill but i dont see me doing 10v all that often since its such a bear to grind

i know that the belt finish is a less sexy option but there was jsut no way that i was hand sanding this beast (also i was sure to take pictures to sho the grind finish even tho i could have made it look much smoother i ll have to tak ea much more realistic shot of it )
the plus side to it is that it will hold an edge for a dam long time
