Here's one I finished a while back for a really good guy/collector. I couldn't do this one any photo justice so I had to send it for pro photos.

Specs:

Hand-forged from 1075 steel, clay quenched and etched

9 1/4" overall, 4 3/8" blade, .195 thick at the ricasso

Full distal taper

'Twisted Steel' fileworked spine

Rounded ricasso edge

Fluted damascus fittings

Heat colored and coined titanium spacer

Stabilized premium Curly Koa handle

Damascus bolt cover

Thank you for the great photo work Coop! Your work never disappoints.

All comments and discussion welcome.

And some details:

That's beautiful John. I really like the guard treatment and that's some killer Koa. Finished impeccably, as usual. Thanks for sharing.
