This one is a bit different for me. It's all shiny and black. I'll keep doing my rustic blades, but this one sure is pretty.

OAL 8 1/4
Blade 4 3/16, 3/32 15N20 steel. Differential temper.
Edge- compound scandi. primary bevel at 12 degrees, compund at 15. You can easily take out the 15 degree portion if you need to with a stone. Cuts really well as is.

Black dymondwood scales with stainless pins and lanyard tube. The lanyard hole is a bit narrow. Still some forge marks on blade, but it's a fairly smooth buffed 400 grit finish.

Cuts great, blade is a bit thin in the puukko style, really nice geometry. I tested with whittling and some green batoning and it's durable.

Black deep pouch sheath with horizontal strap holding the belt loop- easy to customize the belt loop to suit a desired length. Belt loop is long enough for a duty belt. You can also separate the straps a bit with an awl or a rounded bit of music wire of a bike spoke. Then you can feed line through it to hold things or fit a firesteel in.

$90, shipped in the US, paypal or money order preferred.
