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 .
