On offer is this one I finished a couple of weeks ago.

A few details;

Overall length 200mm with a flat ground blade. The blade length is 75mm. Steel is 3.2mm D2, hardness is 60hrc. The tang tapers to approx.1.5mm at the butt
The handle scales are pau rosa, a South American hardwood with characteristic striping of light brown to an almost chocolate colour. The scales have black liners and the corby bolts and thong hole liner are both stainless.

The sheath is wet moulded 3.2mm vegtan, hand dyed and hand stitched with, a first for me, a firesteel holder.

The knife comes with a certificate of origin and guarantee.
The asking price is $265. Postage anywhere in the country is $5.

Thanks for showing John.
That D2 when hardened and sharpened properly is one top steel.
Good alround knife and your imaculate finish.

Cheers,Clive.
