Thought I'd put this one up for show. As the title suggests, it's not really my usual type of knife, however, I figure the only way to improve is to try different things now and then.
Anyway, here's the details. Blade is 5 1/2" 1095, O/L 10 3/8". Carbon fibre and red liners on a tapered tang, with stainless fittings.
The blade is flat ground with a convexed tip.

Thank you for looking.

Thanks.:)
I posted this over on BritishBlades and received a few comments about it being a number of different styles. I never really intended it to be either a Japanese or American style, it was built by grinding away and seeing what happened!
I've decided to call it a Norfolk-style tanto;)

Cheers,

Ian
