Here is one I forged out of some 80CRV2 I got from Aldo. I ground a fuller in to reduce weight and improve balance. I antiqued the finish because it makes it less likely to scratch and if it gets tarnished, it looks intentional.

The handle is natural canvas micarta, wrapped in hemp cord and epoxy soaked. Itprovides a nice grip and it has a turks head knot guard.

The sheath is grey kydex. It snaps in securely and the belt loop can be moved to either side for right or left hand carry. It also has webbing slots so it can be lashed to a pack if needed.

Dimensions
Blade - 8 1/2" tip to knot
OAL - 14 3/4"

Price - sold I will ship internationally for an additional fee.

I have this posted elsewhere, so the first timestamp saying "I'll take it!" gets it.
