Fresh off the bench :) 1084 and Snakewood handles. One 1/8" pin and a 1/4" lanyard tube. I used West Systems G-Flex epoxy and sanded the handle to 800 grit. The blade is hand sanded to 400. This has been one of my fastest builds and I think it is my favorite, and best blade yet. The edge is right around .010" or so, one of my thinnest blades to date! I don't think the photos do it justice ;)




The spots on the blade in this photo are from the oil I put on the blade.



Please excuse the burr on the lanyard tube! I didn't notice that until now. It will be removed immediately!




*It has not been sharpened yet*

Sorry for the piss poor photos, The lighting wasn't the best and my camera...well it's a free table that came with my moms phone :rolleyes: Work with whatcha got I guess!
