I wanted to make some simple, steel handled brute de forge style knives for edc, and to beat around with. The Kwaiken definitely have some Takeda influence going on.

These are a sampling of what I have available. There are multiples of these knives, and since they are hammer textured, all have their own thing going on. They are all the same profile pattern, and all feature a similar double V ground blade. All are edge quenched, and you can see a faint hamon. All come with a basic neck carry/IWB loop compatible kydex sheath. PM for further questions/inquiries. Hope you guys like these!

(Since there are so many knives, please post an "I'll take it" so I can keep things in order.)

Thanks guys!
 
Hey Josh. Just curious (and interested) about the spine on the clip portion of the hunters. I'm guessing squared off, flat ground? Thanks. Mike
 
Hey Mike, yes these are just square on the spine. I liked the way they looked this way, and it adds some strength.
 
Thanks Josh. I will go for a clip point hunter. PayPal is on its way. Thanks. Mike
 
Awesome! Thanks Mike! Trying to get a decent pic of the other one. Hamons are camera shy!

Capitalized - Thanks man! These were fun to make for sure.
