Mamba in Flame Grain Walnut

[EScott]

Scott finished another JS test knife candidate this afternoon - a sleek fighter we're calling The Mamba.

The Mamba
Steel: W2
Finish: Hand-rubbed with hamon
Handle: Flame grain walnut (from Burl Source)
Blade Length: 8 inches
Overall Length: 13 3/4 inches

Scott's out in the shop wrestling with a Cottonmouth. If all goes well, it will be done soon and his JS potentials will be complete.

Mamba mia! Well done, that is a thoroughly excellent batch of test knives.
As a collector I would be looking at the entirety of your submission kit with great interest, if it were within my means.

Looking good! Hope I get to meet you next weekend and see your work up close. I won't have a table, but I'll be attending.

Dang Scott!

I couldn't agree more. Can't wait to check em out in person.

All lines flow towards the point, the essence of a fighter. Nice work.
