America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.
Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!
I don’t know what it is but I just have sharpen it and touch up a scratch or two in the finish but other than that it’s done.

Overall length is about 9-7/8”. From the point to the end of the cutting edge is around 4”-4-1/4”. Full flat grind with 20 LPI jimping. Started out with 3/16” W2 and put a mild taper on the tang. I don’t have my calipers handy but did thin the blade out a bit overall. Differential heat treatment with some pretty good character. I need to touch up a spot or two but will wait until after I sharpen it to do that.Sweet.....what are the dimensions please?
