Congratulations on your first forged blade. Be careful it is habit forming.

Looks a lot like my first one Only your profile is nicer by far.

Thanks guys. I was going to make micarta scales for it, but it warped a bit in quench. Probably could have fixed it, but I really like how the leather wrap looks. The only grinding I did on this was cleaning up the edges and the end of the handle, everything else was forged, filed and sanded by hand.
