W2 with Stabilized Sycamore and Leather. Bold Hamon

[Bailey Knives]

Here is one I forged from some of Hanson's W2. It was clay quenched and etched for a nice bold hamon. It was hand polished to 1500 grit prior to the etch.

The handle is stabilized sycamore. The bolster area is canvas micarta. It is faceted and sculpted to fit in the hand well. It is held in place with pins and G-flex epoxy.

The sheath is 7-8oz hand tooled leather from Wickett and Craig. The knife fits well.

Dimensions
Blade - 3 3/4" tip to handle
OAL - 8 1/4"

Price - $285 shipped to US. I will ship internationally for an additional fee.

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

I love this model of yours. I can honestly say the handles you put on these knives are some of my absolute favorite, especially the ones you do in cocobolo. Great work!
