o-1 and Mirindaba wood skinner

[Jim Coffee]

Another new model for me, This one I'm very happy with and you will be seeing more of them. I was looking for something a little different for me and this is what I came up with. The wood for this one has some GREAT shimmer and grain to it, I had never heard of this wood before till I seen it on a knife posted on here so I contacted the maker and he was kind enough to sell me a couple pieces and I wish I had more ....

overall length is 9-3/4"
blade is 4-5/8" tip to guard
O-1 tool steel hollow ground with a fine scotchbrite finish..RAZOR SHARP..
nickel silver guard soldered on and stacked black and white fiber spacers
HANDLE..Mirindaba wood with 8 coats of formby's tung oil finish, sanded to 1000 grit between coats. final coat sanded to 2500 grit and buffed. The wood looks like a cross between Afzalia with the small tight grain and quilted maple with the shimmer
right hand hand tooled traditional style sheath, made by maker

***ALL my sheaths are made for each knife one at a time so you get a proper fit and not just any generic sheath with your knife***

The total weight of this knife is 5.4 ounces, very light and fast feeling in hand

This wood is just AWESOME and the pictures dont do it justice.

hope you like it and all comments welcome
