Damascus & Rosewood- small hideout fighter...

This is a small gent's carry bowie or hideout fighter. It's slim and light and relatively short. Easy to carry. It's fairly stout but has sharp distal taper ending in a nice sharp point.

Specs:

Forged from my own 1084 and 15n20 damascus
9 1/2" overall, 4 3/4" blade, .200" thick at the ricasso
Clip is just shy of sharp
Fittings are German Silver
All the edges of the guard have been rounded so there's no sharp edges
Rare and beautiful Camatillo Rosewood handle that is NOT a broom handle . It has more contour than I can show with these pics.
German silver finial.

I have mixed feelings about the finial and might make something else for it. I thought if this was a 'fighter' the pointed finial might be a good skull crusher.

Feel free to post all comments and opinions.
