Redwood Fighter

[Karl B. Andersen]

This is one of those pieces of handle material that really needs a movie camera to view it!
It just follows you around the room.
Forged the blade from some W2, a little clay here and there, some hot-blued fittings on each end, and there you have it.
I got this chunk of Redwood last year at Blade from the Bybee's and have been waiting for the right knife on which to use it.
She's an 8" blade and a short 13" overall.

Karl, great looking knife. I've got a similar piece of wood, and your right, the camera doesn't do it justice.

As I love exotic woods, all I can say is that this Redwood is an
extraordinary piece, Karl, making an amazing looking handle on
a great looking knife!

All the best,
