This started out as a concept piece and turned into something interesting.
$65 + shipping (generally $12 for USPS flat rate with tracking and insurance) Paypal preferred.
1/8" 1080 from Kelly Cupples, my heat treat.
Blade 3.75"
Overall 8.25"
Bright, nearly mirror finish on the blade blended back to about a 220 finish at the butt.
It's a single sided grind but with matching convex grinds for the actual edge, I've got it nice and sharp but this edge design has potential for a wickedly efficient cut if you want to sharpen it like a straight razor.

Balance point is right at the end of the handle area.
It's visible but not super clear in the pics, the holes are beveled and have a texture to them.

I have a black sheath for this guy but it's not a great match due to the lack of handle scales, a decent leather worker can make something with a much better fit. The sheath is similar to the one in the last pic, but slightly longer and thinner, with a smoother finish (not wet formed). The sheath is an additional $15 if you want it.
