Check it out!

19" Total Length
5.5" Handle
3/16" Thick O1 Tool Steel
Full Flat Plungeless Double Asymmetrical Grind
Etched Finish with Polished Convex Edge
Stingray
Permanent Epoxy Soaked Cord Wrap
Titanium Menuki

I differentially hardened the blade and carved the Menuki (handle ornament) myself. The menuki is anodized and has an almost opalescent look with bronze highlights. The asymmetrical grind can be used ambidextrously and just leans to a right handed grind with a small shoulder on the left side. To me the balance and performance really stands out on this one! I tested it on some pine and was impressed, I could easily sink the entire blade...

I used stingray leather under the cord wrap, one side of the handle has a menuki and the other side features the "diamond" section of stingray!

As always I back my work 100%! Just let me know if you have any questions!


$275 with Kydex!

there is a bit of oil on the blade near the handle... not epoxy! :D
