My Latest Knife-

[David Stifle]

Hi Guys,

Here's my latest knife.

12.25" 1095 blade with hamon, 51/2" (excluding finial) sambar stag handle with wraught iron and NS spacers, 3/16's inch spine at guard with distal grind.
Blade sanded to 2000 grit and then hand polished, not a true mirror finish, but a nice one. Clam shell S-guard, NS. Appreciate your input.

Thank you, guys. I appreciate the kind words. I've been at this, mostly part time, for 6 years. This is the best knife I've made so far.

Good luck, keep up the good work.

Thanks Bear

We've talked once in awhile. Are'nt you the fella that likes larger handles? Hope my memory serves me correctly. This handle is 5 and one half inches long, and I am beginning to really like a little extra handle myself, especially on such a large blade.Thanks for the very nice comment.
