Different for me

OAL 10" and the blade is 4 1/2"long from plung to tip ATS34, guard and spacers are nickle/sliver, handle is ironwood. And Dan Farr style handle, the block of iron wood was split twice with two layers of carbon fiber between each.

Art-I like it! You do some nice work!

Impressive. That handle had to give you a headache or 2.

Beautiful overall shape to the piece. It flows well.

Great job!

Thanks, for the comments.

Barry,
Realy it was a pain, this is the third handle. The first one I had the slot milled to big for the tang and when I had it in the clamp the top was way off centerand look like crap. the second handle the center section cracked so I had to take that handle off. And doing just one handle was a lot of work.

Great work Art. I expected nothing less.

looks great Art. I have to admire your patience after the second handle attempt I would have given up or gone another direction. steve

Sometimes all you need is persistence and determination in order to do something amazing.

Well done!

Doing the temper on the 5 knives that I HT yesterday after being in the nitrogen all night I had some time so I finished the sheath for this knife.

Great looking sheath to go with a great looking knife.
