This is a new spin on the Nessmuk design. It is made from 1/8" O1 tool steel. I gave it a high flat grind down to about 25 thousandths. This is a good compromise for slicing and strength. The heat treat scale is left on the flats. The blade shape lends itself to skinning and game processing but it is also a very capable camp tool.
Overall length is 8 5/8" with a 4 1/4" cutting edge. The handle is made from ironwood. This is a dense, fine grained wood with a definite western look. The pins are copper. The shape of the handle makes the knife very nimble in the hand.
It also comes with a wet formed leather sheath. The brown matches the handle.
The price is $175 + $15 shipping. First "I'll take it" followed by a PM gets it. Must be 18 to purchase. You are responsible for the laws in your area.

Beautiful knife. Newbie question: is the ironwood handle stabilized or treated? Very nice looking ironwood indeed,
 
Ironwood generally isn't stabilized unless its a burl. The ironwood is so dense that stabilizer wont absorb into it.
 
Beautiful work, Nessmuk with Ironwood handles......I'll take it if still available! PM incoming.
Thanks,

Noah
