Hi guys,
I've been working on this one off and on for a while now and it finally has made it off my bench. It's O-1 steel heat treated by Peter's to RC59 and the Ringed Gidgee is from The Timber Joint and has some of the best figure I've seen. The guard is brass and the the spacer is carbon fiber/brass weave. The balance point is about an inch ahead of the guard so it's slightly weight forward. The swedge is not sharpened.
SPECS:
OAL: 16"
BLADE: 9.5" long, 1.5" wide, full flat grind with slight convex at the edge which is 0.015" before sharpening. 600 grit hand sanded finish.
STEEL: 0.25" O-1 at RC59
HANDLE: Ringed Gidgee, brass guard, carbon fiber/brass weave spacer, mosaic pin.
SHEATH: Handmade stacked leather.
$415 Shipped CONUS, international buyers welcome shipping extra.
Paypal, checks or money orders accepted.
Post "I'll take it" here in this thread and then PM or email me for arrangements.
Comments/Questions/Critiques welcome.
Thanks for looking!
