Finally got one out that wasn't spoken for already! This is an older blade (made a couple months ago) with a slightly thicker than normal edge (still shaving sharp) and an unusual hamon. 1095 steel, 4 1/16" OAL with a 1 7/8" blade (cutting edge). Scales are F-18 carbon fiber with stainless steel thong hole tube and a Micarta pin. Flat grind. Clay coated Japanese style heat treat (only shows up good in one of the pics, sorry! I was in a rush to get the pics up...). Hamon is unusual in that there is a "ghost" temper line that follows the hamon. Hard to describe but looks cool! Hamon is subtle on this one (I etched it using a different process) and I think it works very well with the carbon fiber. Asking $155 shipped for this one, including multicarry Concealex sheath. $145 without sheath. International orders add postage and insurance costs. Paypal accepted, money orders/cashier's checks, too. Please email for availability. These go FAST, so I don't expect it to last long!

I'll take it (with sheath).

I do not have a paypal account, and would prefer to pay w/ a USPS money order (mailed today or tomorrow). I looked over your website (nice knives!), but didn't see an address for payment. We can finalize sale and exhange mailing adresses by email, if that's OK.

This one is sold. I think 3.5 hours may be a record for me! Sheesh! I have another blade waiting for scales (probably going to go "old school" and slap some blaze Orange G-10 on it, but if you catch me in the next couple of days handle material choice can be yours!), and I also have another Orange Peeler waiting to be finished, so that gives you a week or so to contact me about scales, too. Otherwise, wait and see what it shows up in! ;)
 
Knife Received!

Impressive work: great knife and sheath, very nice Maxpedition carry case, Chiro75 info sheet including specs on my knife.

Now that's a lot for the money! Chiro75 is doing some awesome work!

Thanks,
