Here is another W2 hidden tang. It is forged from some of Hanson's W2 and is left with forge scale on the flats. The blade is clay coated and quenched for a nice hamon. The spine of the blade has some simple rope filework.
The guard is linen micarta and the handle is kingwood. The handle has facets and fits in the hand nicely. The blade is held in with a pin and with strong epoxy.
The sheath is 8-9oz hand stitched and tooled leather from Wickett and Craig. It holds the knife snugly, but allows it to draw easily.
Dimensions
Blade - 4 1/4"" tip to guard
OAL -9"
Price - $235 shipped to US. I prefer paypal, but will accept check or money order.
The first to post here "I'll take it!" gets it.
These shots have slightly different lighting in order to show the hamon.
