Large chopper in 1084/Ironwood

[tobinsmith]

Here's one I'm putting the final touches on. The blade is Aldo's 1/4" 1084 and the handle is desert ironwood. Tapered tang and SS pins.

Overall length is 15.5" with the handle being 5 3/8".

Decent hamon, wish it could've extended down the blade a little further, but I'll take it

Comments/Criticisms welcomed, thanks for checking it out!

That's a beauty there. I like the lines on that one. Nice ironwood too.:thumbup:

really nice work and the hamon is really sweet. Maybe a guard will served better also for this chopper?

Thanks, all, for the comments. The lines on the knife are one of the things I like the most about it as well. It's for that reason it didn't get a guard, Mostho

Thanks again!
