Hi All,
Here is new style of fighter I am now making for sale. 10.25 inches overall, 5.5 inch blade forward of the front bolster and 1 3/8 inches wide at it’s widest. Legally harvested Black Ebony scales and red spacers.The handle is 1/2 inch thick at the bolsters and widens to 7/8 inch at the center about 1 inch high in the middle. Six 1/8th inch brass pins complete the bolsters and handle.
Hollow ground on a 10 inch wheel and very sharp. False upper but it is used to carry the meat of the blade to the tip. Sometimes this is called a penetrator blade. Both the blade and the bolsters are made from Aldo's 3/16ths 1084. The blade is hardened and triple tempered to a Rockwell 60. (Cant say enough of the man and his knowledge not to mention his inventory.) Blade is finished to a mirror finish the rest to a very high satin. All in all I am very pleased with how this one came out. Knives made like this with front and back bolsters are kind of old school. They are a lot of work to make.
Price $175.00 shipped to the lower 48.
If you want a Kydex sheath let me know and we will work something out. I think it deserves leather something I don’t currently work in. If you work in leather and want to team up get back to me.
Thanks for looking. Comments always appreciated. Ken
