So I forged this out a while ago, and decided to go with more of a tanto style shape to it. I like how it turned out. It is 80CRV2, with an antiqued finish. The finish allows it to be more of a hard use knife without the worry about scratches and scuffs.

The handle is natural linen micarta. I left the spine proud, rounded and polished it. Then half the handle was wrapped in micro paracord along with a turks head knot and then epoxy soaked. The micarta is held on with pins and G-flex epoxy. The handle is comfortable and the wrap makes it very grippy.

The sheath is 7-8oz hand tooled leather. The knife fits securely and draws easily.

Dimensions
Blade - 7 1/2" tip to knot
OAL - 14"

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

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