This is some of Don Hanson's W2 forged into a nice recurve fighter type blade. It has been clay quenched for a bold hamon and polished to 2000 grit to bring out the details.
The handle is hemp and cord wrapped and soaked in boatbuilding epoxy to make it nearly indestructible. It is comfortable and provides great grip.
The sheath is 7-8oz hand tooled leather from Wickett and Craig. The knife fits well and draws easily.
Dimensions.
Blade - 4 3/8" tip to first knot
OAL - 9 3/4"
Price - $200 shipped to US
I have this posted elsewhere, so the first timestamp to say "I'll take it!" gets it.
