It seems like it has been a while since I have posted on here. I have been busy finishing up a particularly difficult order. In the midst of that, I have been able to make this one.

It is W2 from Aldo. I have left the forge scale on the flats and have hand sanded and etched the bevels for a nice hamon. I fileworked the spine with a simple rope pattern.

The handle is Cocobolo and the guard is black linen micarta. It also has nice layered spacers as accent pieces. The handle has bevels and contours. It looks nice and fits well in the hand.

The sheath is 8-9oz hand stitched and tooled leather. The knife is held securely with the keeper strap and draws easily with the flick of the thumb.

Dimensions
Blade - 6 1/2" tip to guard
OAL - 11 7/8"

Price - $315 shipped to US. I prefer paypal, but will accept check or money order.

The first to post here "I'll take it!" gets it.

Matt, good to see something from you buddy! I am really loving the more angular handles on your last few knives. They have distinct lines, yet still look really comfortable. Very nice work as usual.
