Here is one made with Don Hanson's W2, forged into this little PFB. The blade was ground on my rotary platen, making it somewhere between a flat grind and a convex grind. It was clay quenched for a nice hamon and hand polished to 2000 grit.

The handle is cocobolo, held in place with pins and G-flex epoxy.

The sheath is 7-8oz hand tooled leather from WIckett and Craig. The knife slips in nicely and the whole sheath is made to slip right in the pocket.

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

Price - $195 shipped to US.

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









 
Got it Mark. I will try to get it to the post office today, otherwise tomorrow.

Thanks again.
 
Received knife this morning, and like it very much. Great design for a compact knife!
Thank you, Matt!
