No Sheath/scabbard.
It is double edged and sharp.


It's 28" overall and weighs 38.5 oz.
The blade is 1095 spring steel 20" X 1. 1/4" X 1/4" thick (3/8" at the catchers).
The guard, bolster, and pommel sides are 1018 steel WELDED
to the full tang.

The handle is 8" long and has a grip of epoxied hemp wrapped over
leather, accented with heavy black nylon thread.


The rough beveled blade is reheated in the forge to glowing red
and quenched in strained used motor oil. After it's cleaned of slag
it's brought back up in temp. until it can be struck with a file.
I leave the file marks showing. I like a handmade knife to look
handmade.
This is how I harden / tempor my blades. They hold an edge
extremely well.
