W-2 & Ironwood

[B . Buxton]

I haven't posted much for a while, I did get this hunter finished up yesterday and throught I'd post to see what others think of it.
Steel is W-2, Nickle/silver hardware, Ironwood handle.
OAL 9 1/2" blade 4 3/4", The blade was clay coated and sports a nice hamon, I did polish it out so it isn't to bold, but shows very well in hand.

Thanks for looking

Bill

Bill, Did you actually make something that wasn't damascus or 52100? How'd you like the steel? Good looking knife!
