always pleased to see a Lynchmade, and this unit is one of my favourites to date
 
Thanks, everyone. And thanks to Chuck for the fine photo and for posting.

The knife is actually my interpretation of a drawing by the customer. Its 9" of W2 left a little dirty at the spine and
around the ricasso. Wrought iron guard with some ironwood and a si bronze pin.

Hope you like it....critique is welcomed.

Thanks,

Tad
 
about time I sent you another drawing
 
Very nice image Chuck, thank you for posting it.
Very nice knife Tad. I always look forward to seeing your knives. Looking forward to seeing you again at the Little Rock Show.

The dirty and the wrought is naughty and nice on this one, and ironwood compliments them very well. That thing is ill-intentioned.

Very nice. Particularly fond of the long clip and contrasting light/dark in the handle and blade. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
 
I would take that one to a knife fight in a New York minute! Nice looking fighter, Tad. Looks like it means business. :thumbup:

It sure is a scary fighter!
It has a stabbing and a sticking look!
Everything match each other from the wood pattern, dark color ricasso, the gray color inside the hamon line and the light color outside the hamon line.
IMVHO the gray color inside the hamon line looks like a pool of blood flowing from the handle through the guard onto the ricasso and the blade!

Congrats to Tad :thumbup: and thanks for showing it here :)

It's great to see this, cracking photo by Chuck too.

What started out as me looking a sort of camp knife has ended up, as it usual does, as a sleek fighter.
Here are a few more pics of the design and the WIP. Looking forward to getting this one home :) Tad did a fantastic job with it and I love the wood. It took all of my strength to not say to stick a bit of stag on it.
