Viper's Fang

[Lorien]

Greetings, and thank you for checking out this thread!

For more information about this knife, please visit my subforum HERE

The price for this piece, outside of Canada, is $1200 USD plus shipping. Payment is via Paypal Goods and Services invoice.

For Canadian addresses, I'll convert the USD value into Canadian funds on the day I receive a buyer's commitment, and then payment can be made via etransfer. There is no shipping charge, since I won't have to give Paypal its 3-4%, which works out to roughly what shipping costs me.

Because this is a collaborative work, (the first of its kind I might add, and likely not the last!) I will be splitting the proceeds 50/50 with Stuart Branson, and I tell you that just for transparency's sake.

These are the dimensions;
overall weight- 14.6oz
knife weight- 9.4oz
steel thickness- 3/16"
blade length- 6 3/8"
overall length- 11 9/16"

Thank you so much for taking a look! Please feel free to ask questions, either by DM or in this thread.

Cheers!

Wonderful, Lorien, both knife and sheath.

Not sure what you did with the screws (dowels?), but it looks great !

Thanks my friend! I appreciate that question...

The oxide 12.9 fasteners hold the belt attachment to the sheath permanently- the holes in the sheath were wet molded, then treated, then tapped, and the bolts are adhered in place. I cut the bolts to length and domed and polished the ends. I think it's a neat look. The loop itself is treated around each hole the screws go through in order to maintain the integrity of the attachment over time. The attachment took a LONG time to figure out how to make, and held up completion of this piece for weeks!

The whole experience has set the stage for the next level of work coming out of my shop.

This sheath has as little welt as it could, and still be sound over the long term, and I personally love its low profile and how it flows with the lines of the knife. Like everything I do, it's imperfect and has some cosmetic flaws, but I poured everything I know into it.

Straight up- the sheath was almost as complicated to make as the knife was to finish!
