I really like this knife. I wanted to go with more of a Bowie shaped blade. I don't make a lot of Bowie style knives, and this would be about as close as I get.
The blade is my high contrast san mai. The core steel is 1095. The spine is fileworked and slightly tapered. I left the forge scale on the flats, because I like it.
The bolster area is black canvas micarta, and the handle is natural canvas micarta.
The sheath is 7-8oz hand tooled and stitched leather. The knife fits snugly and draws easily.
Dimensions
Blade - just over 5 3/4" tip to handle
OAL - 10 1/4"
Price - $330 shipped to US. I prefer paypal to matt@baileyknives.com, but will accept check or money order

Nice score LA, Matt really liking the work on the sheath. Good job. And the hamon on this one just pops off the blade. That or your photography is getting better.
