W2 Jigged Bone with Nice Hamon.

[Bailey Knives]

This one is forged out of W2 and clay quenched for a very nice and bold hamon. The spine is fileworked and the flats are left with the forge scale, because I like how it looks.

The handle is jigged bone. I did a WIP on the process for making jigged bone. You can see it here if you are really bored. http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/1045239-Jigged-bone-WIP It is secured with peened pins and acraglas.

The sheath is hand tooled 8-9oz leather from Wickett and Craig. It is designed for this knife specifically and the knife fits like a glove. It draws easily and fits snugly.

Dimensions
Blade - 3 3/4" tip to handle
OAL - 7 7/8"

Price - $245 shipped to US. I prefer paypal, but will accept check or money order.

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

Your knives and sheaths have plenty of style Matt.

 

[Bailey Knives]

Thanks Alan. I wanted the sheath to have the same pattern as the handle. It kinda does... if you have a great imagination.

Very nice Matt. You are really nailing your hamon.

 

[Alan Warren Knives]

It does, and I do see it. Its much more than just a knife and sheath. Its art that you can use. Love this blade style.

You nailed the sheath pattern Matt, Awsome looking package!

Really like how this one turned out. If I had extra money to spend, I would probably snatch this one up. Nice work!

I have admired your knives for quite some time Matt, and I think it is time I owned one. I will take this one.

 

[Bailey Knives]

Jackofalltrades, it is yours. Thanks!
