A little knife in W2 and some unique Koa...
Here's some pics of one I finished recently for a collector. I think this is a mean looking little knife. Very compact and lightweight.
Hand forged from W2 steel, clay quenched and etched 7 3/8" overall, 3 3/8" blade, .160" at the ricasso with full distal taper False edge, just shy of sharp Heavily rounded spine and ricasso edge Black g-10 collars Thorn and vine fileworked titanium spacer Stabilized Hawaiian Koa Claude Scott made the sheath and did a great job of it too! All comments and discussion welcome. __________________ John Doyle You have nothing to fear but fear itself...........and bears. |

Nice piece John! As usual the "flow" is very attractive!
