Hi Guy's,
I forged this piece in 153 layers of 1084 and 15n20. The Damascus Twist pattern goes with the twisted piece of Stag. (Or I would like to think so)
The blade is just under 8 & 7/8" to the guard.
The overall length is 13 & 1/2
The Guard and the Butt plate is 416 Stainless Steel.
The spacer is nickel silver.

The picture below has a reflection of a line on the blade.

Thank's for Looking.
Comments Welcomed.

Hey, that's really nice! At first glance I thought the guard might've had too much curve in it, but looking at the whole package it works well with the curvature of the stag. I also like that the guard curves are large in radius and not just 'kinked'.
 
Wow that is really a great looking blade. I like everything about that!
Cheers Keith
 
There you go Dave, very good aesthetic balance, great choice of material and executed to a very high degree.
With all the talk of how scarce premium Stag is, we sure see a heck of a lot of beautiful stag handled knives lately.
 
One of your best I would say David. The guard and buttcap look great around that killer popcorn stag, and the damascus and blade profile add up to an awesome knife!
