Gentlemen:
For your consideration is this dropped hunter in stabilized Bastogne Walnut/1095. The walnut has 100% broken fiddleback figure - I had it stabilized by K&G. The tang extends 2/3 of the way into the handle and is set in marine grade epoxy and a stainless pin. The fullered spacer is Desert Ironwood burl - there is also a matching plug inlay in the butt of the handle because it's cool. The stainless spacer is coined. The blade was double edge quenched, hand rubbed to 1200 grit and etched to reveal an interesting hamon. The spine is rounded and has checkered thumb serrations. The sheath holds the knife securely by incorporating a cam that pops when the knife is inserted/withdrawn. This is a very light hunter. I hope you like it! The first "I'll take it," PM, or email gets it. $290 delivered CONUS. PayPal preferred to tsteingass@yahoo.com. Thanks for viewing and your comments are appreciated.
