Twisted W2 and Kingwood

[Karl B. Andersen]

This Take-down Andersen Forge Hunter is 512 layers of twisted W2 and 203E.
It also sports some Bronze for the guard.
I hot blued the blade, and the contrast with this amazing Kingwood is something a person will either like - or not.
There's a reason for the combo. These materials are the same as the ones used in the customer's recurve bow.
This was my first experience with Kingwood, and I am just truly thrilled with it. It worked and finished well, and luckily, I bought more when I started this project.
Hope everyone is enjoying the Winter!

That's perfection right there! Very nice Karl. I've always liked kingwood and that's a fantastic piece of it.

That does it! I have got to use some of that myself. The results won't be as stunning as your knife though.
