OK, this was posted in the gallery a while ago as an order. I have not heard from the potential buyer in quite some time so I thought I would post it here.

It is forged W2 with a nice hamon. It has been polished to 2000 grit in order to bring out the details of the hamon. The blade was hand forged to shape then ground.

The handle is black canvas micarta with some nicely figured cocobolo. It is held in place with pins and G-flex epoxy. It has been sculpted to fit the hand well.

The sheath is 8-9oz leather from Wickett and Craig. It has been hand tooled with a nice pattern. I draw these freehand so no two are exactly alike.

Dimensions
Blade - 4 1/2" tip to handle
OAL - 9 1/8"

Price - $265 shipped to US. I prefer paypal, but will accept check or money order.

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





 
That really is the total package. The marriage of micarta, cocobolo, and the blade and hamon is art with a purpose.
