"Wispy Twist" Fighter

[Karl B. Andersen]

A Twist Damascus Fighter, of 324 layers Hot-blued 1084/15N20 to take to the Ohio Classic Knife Show this weekend.
It almost looks like Ironwood, but that handle is stabilized Mesquite Burl, that sort of has it's own "twist" going on.
Take-down assembly accommodated by hot-blued mild steel fittings.
Hope ya'll enjoy:

Beautiful - there's not a single thing I don't like, and everything that's there I like VERY much. The blued fittings turned out great.

What are the dimensions?

You were right Karl, the blued fittings look awesome!

 

[Karl B. Andersen]

Roger, it's not all that large of a knife.
It's just under a 7" blade and a smidge under 12" overall.

 

[John White]

That knife looks great, Karl. The damascus has a beautiful dense swirl, and the handle material does a nice repeat. Somebody's gonna be real happy at the show.
