Very elegant work there, quite nice. I must confess that at first glance I thought the title of your new thread was "switch blade"...switch guard-switch blade, eye habit I guess. D Guard switch blade sounds like a gaudy come on for a POS. I am glad I took the time to come back and actually look. This is very nice work. We seem to have several fine makers in this vein now...:) What the blade steels? What the hafting?
 
Love that long, sleek blade. The knife looks great with either guard. Probably my favorite knife from you so far.
 
Thank you the steel is 1084 and 15n20 hear is a pick of it apart

makes a strong case for becoming a pirate.
 
The new Transformer for big boys! Add a few more handle configurations that can be changed for everyday of the week.
