Here is one I forged out of old W2. It has been clay quenched for a nice hamon. The blade was finished to 800 grit and etched to bring out the details.

The handle is some old aged micarta that is cross cut to show the grain. The pattern is a result of the aging. It is rounded and shaped to fit the hand well. 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 allows for an easy draw.

Dimensions
Blade - 3 7/8" tip to handle
OAL 8 5/8"

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.

Matt made me one like this. It’s one of my favorite knives. Special piece and awesome in use. Old steel and old micarta with beautiful craftsmanship all add to the joy of ownership. Worth the price.
 
It’s also surprisingly robust for its size, which I attribute to the quality of the old materials, but it carries with a nice light feeling vertically on your belt.
 
Sorry one other thing, Matt makes a nice sheath too. No shortcuts there. Great package.
