Here is one I forged from some really old W2 I picked up at a knife show last year. It has been hand sanded to 1000 grit and clay quenched for a nice hamon.

The handle is some desert ironwood that has been sculpted and shaped to fit in the hand nicely. It has been faceted because I like how it looks. It is held in place with pins and G-flex epoxy.

The sheath is 7-8oz hand tooled leather. IT holds the knife securely and lets it be drawn easily.

Dimensions - 5 7/8" tip to handle
OAL - 11 1/2"

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.
