This blade is the last of the most recent HT batch, and will be my last post until my next batch comes back and I get caught up on commission and sheath work.

This blade features some of my finest handle material, and my last piece of this beautiful old growth Redwood burl. It has some of the tightest burl and deepest color I've seen. I finished it out in my standard Gunstock style, which is comfortable and locates in the hand very well.

Nicely balanced and has good manners. Fit and finish is excellent. Guard/Handle are @1200 grit, blade at 800 grit satin polish. Comes very sharp. I recently started using a new method and am very happy with the results. The blade is taken close to a zero grind, with just enough extra meat behind the edge for added durability without hurting cutting performance.

CTS-XHP @ 60, .159" thick
Full flat grind w/full distal taper
Old Growth Redwood burl, K&G stabilized
Black and White G10 liners
416ss guard and sterling silver pin
4.125" edge length, 9.5" OAL
5.3oz

I'd like to get $240 shipped for this one. Price includes buyers choice of premium hand stitched leather sheath.
