Gentlemen:
For your consideration is this Presentation Grade Dropped Hunter in W-2 with California Buckeye Burl. This is a very close rendition of the original with a rounded ricasso bottom, 3/16" stock, hollow grinds all the way up to the spine.....the balance point is behind the guard. The deeply hollow ground blade was differentially heat treated with clay, hand rubbed to 2000 grit and etched to reveal a vivid hamon line. The highly figured Buckeye burl has lots of figure and was stabilized by K&G. Superb fit and finish. Includes a Loveless style right hand sheath. I missed cleaning off a little buffing compound around the lanyard tube and this is free of charge.
I hope you like it! The first "I'll take it", PM, or email gets it. $350 plus $18 shipping. International shipping will require additional postage I'm sure. Paypal preferred to my account tksteingass@frontier.com. Maker's lifetime common sense warranty and free sharpening. Thanks for viewing my work!
