Silliness

[G L Drew]

That's what my wife called this one: maybe, but it was sure fun to make.
Several uses I can think of:
Finish off that wild boar that your bulldog has by the ear, ward off zombies and big foot, chop off a limb and make a Zulu type spear. Etc.

Forged from 52100 steel with a mild steel socket welded to the tang.
The blade is heat treated to Rc 58-60
Flat grind with one edge paper slitting sharp and the opposite edge almost sharp for batoning. I can sharpen both sides if someone wants that done.
Overall length: 16 1/2 inches
Cutting edges 9 1/4 inches
Socket inside diameter: 1 inch
I will make a leather cover or scabbard with a belt loop if desired

The edge with the sharpening nick has been sharpened

Looks great.

Couple of questions:
- Is there an additional charge for the sheath?
- Where is the point of balance and roughly what is the weight? Doesn't have to be exact - I'm just interested to know if this is relatively light and nimble (perhaps around a lb in weight), or more hefty? I guess it depends a lot on the thickness of the metal in the socket.

Yes, the price includes a scabbard to your specs. I’m guessing about one pound and it is heavy to the blade. I will be home this afternoon and can be more specific at that time.

Thanks for the response. I'll take it.

I'd like to get a scabbard with belt loop and have the top edge sharpened without a sharpening choil (will help me distinguish between the two edges).

Will send paypal later.

14.4 ounces, Brummell and balanced right at the choir.
