W2 Bone handle w/ Hamon

[Bailey Knives]

This is a piece of 2 1/2" round W2, squished out on my press. The blade was clay quenched and has a nice bold hamon. The spine is also fileworked.

The handle is buffalo bone. It polishes up quite nicely, and I like how it looks. It is held in place with 3 regular pins, one mosaic and acraglas.

The sheath is 7-8oz hand stitched and tooled leather. The knife fits well and draws easily.

Dimensions
Blade - 7" tip to handle
OAL - 11 3/4"

Price - $285 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, thanks it's awesome. Love the contrast of the two steels in the blade and the contrast on the handle

You know I love bone and wood so this all buffalo bone handle one is killing me.

Really nice, Matt! I like the filework on this one a lot, quite a bit different than what I've seen from you in the past. Looks like it's a bit more work than some of the other patterns. Very nice:thumbup:
