Just back from the Ashokan Seminar and picked this little gem up from Burt Foster, a Master Smith out of Bristol, Virginia.
I bought it off his belt and took it as is, so the sheath is a little worn but
that was ok. It came with a neat sheath, he had seen this design before and
it works pretty well, basically one piece of leather wrapped around and around
and then snaps onto the front of the sheath, if you need to take it off to go
into a store, you just unsnap and it slides off.
Blade is about 3" long and made up of 01 and 15n20 steel
Nicely done integral
and also nicely done is the desert ironwood handle with nickel silver domed pins
Sharp as can be also
Thanks again Burt, lovely knife!
