I decided to make a smaller hunting knife, here is the result
The blade is some san mai Damascus with Aldos 1084 as the core steel. I have left the forge scale on the flats.
The handle is a little different. I have a very thick chunk of old micarta and I cut it so that what would normally be the butt end and tops and bottom of a handle are actually the sides, if that makes any sense. Either way, I think it looks really cool, and because it is so old, it has darkened in color and still has some lighter streaks running through it.
The sheath is 8-9oz hand stitched and hand tooled leather from Wickett and Craig.
Dimensions
Blade 4 ¼ tip to guard
OAL 8 7/8
Price - $210 shipped to US. I prefer paypal, but will accept check or money order.
The first to post here Ill take it! gets it.
