Hello all.
It's been a while since I last posted and I apologize.
Here is a Persian Fighter I forged using 1095 carbon steel.
She is 14 1/2" OAL and has a 2000+ grit 100% hand finish. Her scales are carved ivory and wrapped with silver roses. The bolsters are cable Damascus with contrasting pins in an arc pattern. I have always preferred making knives with minimum aid of machines and I believe it shows in this piece.
Well, what do you think?
Be safe,
