Michael Fong- fixed blade
One of those unfinished blanks that I'd put in a beer mug/pen pencil holder and forgotten. Want to say this was ground back in '01 or 02'. Epoxied this up the other night with some scrap buckeye burl.

Intended for light duty tasks. More along the lines of a slim fighter type. A bit big and heavy for a neck knife. Trying to decide on stitching up leather or use Kydex.
That same pattern with obsidian handle scales. Working the obsidian was tough, right up there with agate. I have to find my photo of that knife. The obsidian was orange so the handle was fairly vibrant contrasty. https://www.ebay.com/itm/CUSTOM-BLAD...53.m1438.l2649 Found a small version of the photo, kinda hard to see but a bit better color accuracy than the one on the auction site. Date stamp is 5/2001 so that puts it for the Blade Show West. Recall that it sold at the Vegas Classic in '02 or was picked up by a dealer at that show. __________________ Mike Last edited by M&J; 12-10-2018 at 02:55 PM. Reason: picture added |
