I recently had a gentleman contact me requesting a blade with a guard. He was very specific in what he wanted, which made it easier for me. I was confident I could do a good job on it or else I wouldn't have taken on the project, even though it is my first. I had a couple small hang ups (when I first machined the slot, it was about .010" too big, so I could see a small gap on either side of the blade. seeing some of the work on this forum made me feel this was completely unacceptable, So I tig welded in some filler and filed it back out to make a nice snug fit). So here it is. The blade is CPM 3V, 6" long, 1/4" thick, heat treated by Peters to RC 60-61. G10 scales, and the guard is titanium, with 2 1/8" titanium pins holding it in place and tig welded in. Please let me know what you guys think.
