Hello,
This fighter was made by Thomas Thibeault of Daytona Beach, Florida. The overall length is 10 3/4" with a 6 1/4" blade. The damascus blade is hand forged and has a variable temper, hard front about RC58 and slightly softer closer to the handle and on top edge about RC 55. I don't know what steels were used in the mix though. The handle is cocobolo. It has a brass guard and pommel with black and red liners. The knife is marked T2. The only things that detract from this knife is the solder job where the blade meets the guard and one spot on the blade which I have pictured. Neither of which really affect the performance of the knife, just the appearance. It does not have a sheath.
Value priced at $125 shipped
