One-of-a-kind from Mastersmith Wally Hayes... 9" blade of 1/4" O1, 1 7/8" wide at peak of spine...an imposing piece. Spine is full-section right up to the last inch of tip grind..
One of those pieces that is just plain difficult to 'capture' in photos... The heavy spine 'carries' 'the blade nicely, and it feels fairly quick in-hand. Very nice cord-wrap over black ray, with Turks-head knot. Kydex-lined black-cordura sheath with pocket. Classic east-West blend...in a well-executed piece of unique character. [Original cost $650., and if you cold get Mr. Hayes to make another, it would certainly cost a fair bit more, and take a while....] *More, and better/larger, photos available via e-mail. - WELL under the money, at ***SOLD***. shipped/insured CONUS
