In June I had this real bad craving to obtain another fixed blade. I had my eyes on a certain piece of eye candy! What I wanted couldn't be had ~ so I contacted the maker and this is what we came up with:

<CENTER>

</CENTER>

<CENTER>12.75" overall length. 8" of Nick Smolen Ladder Pattern carbon damascus (75% 5160 and 25% 203E) that has a sharpened false edge.</CENTER>

<CENTER>
View
</CENTER>

<CENTER>4.75 inches of handle and guard/pommel. The scales are polished mammoth ivory scales that are pinned over a hidden tang. The handle is accented with Mike Sakmar twist mokume (copper and nickel/silver only, leaving out the brass) guard and pommel.</CENTER>

<CENTER>

</CENTER>

<CENTER><font face="arial" size=+1 color "red">David Broadwell</font></CENTER>

<CENTER>worked his magic to provide me with a Fighter that I wanted!</CENTER>

Wanna talk about "fast?" I can't tell yet....unable to see the speed thru my teary eyes......

BTTT......

Someone contacted me recently and was asking about this knife and how he could contact David Broadwell..... Was more than happy to help out.....

While this knife was being made I envisioned a folder (with fighter style blade) to match this fixed wonder!

David sent me an e-mail today stating that someone contacted him today about a fixed blade like mine.......

Well.........the matching fighting folder is gonna happen!

Gag, that is one beautiful knife, and with your nasty personality having several fighters on on you, fixed and folder sounds like a good idea
