Hiroaki Ohta small fixed blade with desert ironwood handle
Just got this yesterday but find it is just a tad small for me and so I am moving it on, I have sharpened it to it's betterment and added my classic bobtail fob which has a Celtic bead sandwiched between two tightly made diamond knots.
Sheath came from the maker as well, a dangler type, solid, knife snaps into place nicely, inside looks to be a kydex layer which will help prevent any accidental cutting of the sheath, the leather is pretty rugged and solid feel.
The ATS-34 blade is just a shade under 2" long and the Desert Ironwood handle is just a shade over 3" long.
The handle has what looks to be a micarta spine, and micarta bolster, the narrow section runs around the tang so the tang is completely enclosed, very nice finish and feel to this.
Price shipped in the USA is $140, Price drop to $130 shipped
Drop to $120
payment by US Postal Money Order or check if I know you, sorry but I do not have paypal...
Here are a few images taken the day she arrived;
