Hello Folks, This little dude was a bit of a challenge because of the compound grind and getting both sides to match on a small piece of steel. I have done a few of these, but not quite like this one. Hope you like what you see.

Blade is 154 CM .122 thick and 3.1 tip to bolsters. O/A is 5.937. Grinds are hollow and flat.
Tang is tapered and hollow ground. Heat treated with cryo quench and double tempered. I polish then finish with 2000 grit. Top edge is false, but can easily be sharpened.

Bolsters are Black G10 held tight with .093 aluminum bronze welding rod.

Handle is very nice Ironwood burl with thin red liners, custom ruby red pin, and lanyard with hand made ruby red bead.

Sheath is hand tooled and hand stitched custom 8-9 ounce leather. I use the Loveless cam lock idea so the knife fits very snug yet is easy and quick to withdraw.

Asking (sold) shipped in the USA. My paypal is warrencustomknives@yahoo.com Thank you all for looking. Alan

Great looking knife Alan, that blade looks like it would be very difficult to grind, you did a fantastic job on that.
