I forged this out of W2 and heat treated the blade with clay for a nice hamon. It is one of the better hamons I have managed to produce. It is a harpoon grind and polished to 2000 grit.
The handle is black canvas micarta. I used my new (to me) mill to mill out the tang slot and then I fastened it together. It is nearly impossible to see the joint line. The guard is stainless with ivory micarta spacers. The handle feels nice in the hand.
The sheath is 8-9oz hand tooled leather. It is made from several pieces and has a functional keeper strap.
Dimensions
Blade - 6 5/8" tip to guard
OAL - 11"
Price - $300 shipped to US. I prefer paypal, but will accept check or money order.
