W2 Pocket Fixed Blade with Bias Micarta and Leather. Nice Hamon.

[Bailey Knives]

Here is one I forged from Don Hanson's W2. It has been clay quenched for a nice hamon. I polished it to 2000 grit to bring out the details. The blade is a razor.

The handle is bias cut canvas micarta. It is shaped nicely to fit the hand and is held together with G-flex epoxy and micarta pins, along with one mosaic.

The sheath is 7-8oz hand tooled leather from Wickett and Craig. The knife slips in nicely and holds securely.

Dimensions
Blade - 3" tip to handle
OAL - 6 1/4"

Price - $195 shipped to US. I prefer paypal, but will accept check or money order.

I have this posted elsewhere, so the first timestamp saying "I'll take it!" gets it.

superb design and execution. two questions: what's the hrc on that w2? what's the in-sheath thickness?

 

[Bailey Knives]

W2 is about 62 at the edge. It will cut and cut. It is about 3/4"at the thickest part in the sheath.

I will take it. Pls pm me?

She arrived this morning! Thanks matt! She is gorgeous, perfectly melting into my hand. I was concerned about in pocket thickness but that seems no trouble at all. And the hamon lines with the mirror edge, oh my!

Very nice 99, i like it. Do you use it alot? I plan to use it mostly for rope, i hope the 62rc will stay sharp on tek kevlar line. Ive been using a hinderer elmax, and its great, but heavy in the pocket for what im doing with it.
