Up for grabs is --what I'm calling -- a Harpoon Fighter. This knife is quite beefy, with a spine thickness of ~1/4" at the front of the scales, and a dramatic distal taper to compensate. The back edge is sharp. The blade has been antiqued slightly, including that portion around the perimeter of the handle.


Some Stats:
Length: 9-13/16"
Blade : 4-7/8" (Tip to choil)
Steel: W-2 (from Aldo)
Handle: Desert Ironwood scales with Black G10 liners and Corbies

The price for this one is SOLD shipped within the US. Please contact me concerning shipping outside the US. Buyer is responsible for determining the legality of this knife within their state or country of residence. I prefer payment via Paypal. If interested -- or if you just have some questions or comments -- feel free to shoot me a PM or email by clicking on my name above. My goal is 100% satisfaction; so if for any reason the buyer is not happy with this knife, please ship it back undamaged within 30-days and I'll send a full refund.

Thanks for looking.

It's nice to see someone actually make a fighter sheath that is a FIGHTER SHEATH and not just an afterthought to the knife itself. Excellent work my friend.
 
Great work! You almost - almost - made me break my promise not to buy any more knives in April. Soooo tempting.
 
Hey guys, I added a couple more photos to the OP that give a better idea of the shape of the handle and tapering of the tang. A couple of gentlemen were asking about it over on Custom & Handmade.

You and a few other have commented on the sheath, which makes me chuckle just a bit. :D The truth is, I don't much like making sheaths, but consider it something that I have to do in order to sell knives. My main goal is to make something that is sturdy, matches the style/shape of the knife, and won't ugly-up my final photos. :p I dream about the day when folks will buy my knives and have them shipped off to Paul Long or any of the other fabulous leather-workers whose work I've seen on these forums. ;)
This particular sheath is decent enough, and matches the simplicity of the knife... but it's nothing fancy, and I do wish the fit was a bit more snug.

Thanks for the comments guys.
