Hey there everybody! After a few years of thinking about it I finally went and did it. A classic DPR tribute. Wow that’s a lot of work and a steep learning curve for me.

Steel is 1/8” x 1 1/8” in A2 with a lightly tapered tang. Professional BOS HT at 60/61. Hand sanded to 1200 grit for a semi reflective finish. The edge was about .01” before sharpening and it balances just behind the front pin.

Dimensions:7 3/4” OAL, Tip to guard 3 1/2”

Blued steel guard and Blue Canyon Richlite make up the handle, accented with black/yellowG10 liners. Secured with 3/16” Stainless pins and lanyard tube. The underside behind the guard is imperfectly smooth transition (see next to last photo), not bad but not perfect so it needs to be mentioned and it’s reflected in the price.

The slender handle feels great in my average sized hand. The blade is nice and snug in the sheath.
