just finished this one up today . A smaller version of a Persian fighter I made a few years back .

It has a full height flat grind creating a nice distal taper to the tip . It has been hand sanded to a 600 grit finish .

Steel is 5/32 " A-2 tool steel heat treated to an Rc. 61 , the sweet spot for this steel .

O.A.L is 9" , the blade tip to handle is 4-1/2" , it is 1" edge to spine

Sharpened edge is at 4-1/4 "

Handled up in White Ivory Micarta and 2- 5/32 copper pins , clean and simple beauty.

Sheath is 8 oz cow hide right hand belt carry pouch style



Hope you all like it .

Pleasantly pleasing to the eye. Looks like a gentleman's knife.
 
"clean and simple beauty" you are right on that Jack.

Lovely and lethal is what I thought.

Nicely done :thumbup:
