Here's one I did up a while back. Still no name for this design but I thought I'd post it anyways.

Specs:
Steel: Damasteel - Rose Pattern
Blade Length: 4 1/2" (from end of guard)
Overall: 9 3/8"
Handle: Stabilized African Blackwood
Pin: Mosaic
Guard: 416SS

Thanks for looking,
Sean

Wow. The Rose Pattern is beautiful. The knife's clean but compelling, Rustic but contemporary too.:thumbup:

Love it Sean! Very nice lines. And I vastly prefer a hidden tang.

Thanks very much guys. I've got another knife in the works using this rose pattern for Blade. It shuold look pretty cool, at least I really hope so!!!

I'm starting to make a few hidden tang designs and really like them. I am hoping to sometime this year make a subhilt fighter with hidden tang, we'll see.

I'm getting real sick and tired of telling you how nice your knives are already! :grumpy:

Yet another beautiful knife. Very clean lines on this one. She curves in just the right places. I like that you used a simple stainless steel guard rather than another piece of damascus.

Looking forward to complimenting your next creation.
