Really pleased with this one. Called it a toad sticker because it is long and narrow, however the spine is thick enough that this is a working knife not a fillet. The blade finished out very nice and the copper exposed on the tang perimeter coupled with the double liners is very appealing. Rounded out with a nice clean and compact sheath made by my wife. Thanks for looking. Questions or comments are welcomed.

I love the looks of the layers of copper and nickel... but wonder how it will patina over time.

Keeping the blade oiled or waxed will slow patina of the copper. The copper will patina/darken over time. If desired it can be refreshed by rubbing the blade and or tang lengthwise with fine steel wool with oil on it to remove the patina. 👍
