Tribal Blade (sold)

[Rick Marchand]

SOLD
Hey folks,
Here is the "Tribal" blade I posted a few months ago in the gallery complete with sheath. This was a side project for me, hence the dragged out completion date. I really dig this "as forged" finish. The final edge was the only grinding I did on this one. Thanks for looking.
