Forged from W2 round bar (1-1/2" x 4"), Overall 17", blade is 11-3/4" L x 2-1/4" W x 3/8" thick at ricasso. Convex edge, sharp cplip, "working" polish to show hamon. Handle is Ziricote, which ive only used a few times, it sure works nicely.

Wow, that's a beautiful horse of a blade. I really like the way the hamon comes around the clip.

Another fine knife Matt. You never disappoint. I think you have those big knives "down pat"!

thanks fellas, its a real handfull, but thats what the customer wanted. I forged myself one today, a bit trimmed down from this beast though.

Is the guard stainless, Matt?

Lamey · « **Reply #16 on:** November 10, 2012, 10:08:00 AM »

hi Karl, no on this one the guard is mild steel, was going to blue it but decided to leave in the white for contrast. Ive done a few in the white, and was worried about staining etc. but it doesnt seem to be a big problem with minimal maintanance.

Very nice Matt. I like everything about this one, as always with your knives.
