Damascus Hunter/Fighter Hidden Tang
« on: November 18, 2008, 08:22:00 AM »
This a 1095 carbon and 15N20 nickel fighter/hunter blade. The handle is stabilized green dyed maple burl. It has a brass guard with a red spacer and brass pin. The blade is 5-1/4" to the guard and OAL is 9-3/4". Enjoy!

nice knife, Skullie!

One suggestion- please don't take this the wrong way, I'm no expert...but my teachers have preached to me the guard needs to be kicked toward the back end of the handle every so slightly instead of kicked up toward the point..makes for a better flow.

Just somehting to think about.
