Hi Guys



This drop point fighter has a centre core made with 37 layers of white paper steel and 15N 20 and a cutting edge made from 47 layers of white paper steel and 15N 20 which has been twisted and then forge welded together. Blade length is 145mm, blade thickness is just over 5mm and the overall length is 278mm. The single branch carbon steel hand guard has been gun blued, the handle is stabilised exhibition grade California buckeye burl held in place with one hand made mosaic pin.

The leather sheath has a crocodile skin pattern embossed on it's surface, it's been dyed saddle tan and on the front there is a black leather frame which is inlaid with grey cat fish leather. The single keeper is held with a brass Sam brown stud.

Thank you for taking the time to look, all comments and critique very welcome.

All the best

Steve

Very nice looking knife with really nice blade pattern, the sheath is gorgeous as well.
