I just got this one done to take to the Blade Show. It's a small hideout vest bowie. I'm not a good enough photographer to capture the beauty in the koa and the pattern in the blade at the same time. <img src=' http://www.americanbladesmith.com/ipboard/public/style_emoticons//biggrin.gi f' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

Specs:

Hand forged damascus blade from 1084 and 15n20 steel

4 1/8" Blade, 8 5/8" overall length

False edge, just shy of sharp

'Twisted Steel' filework on spine

Rounded ricasso edge

Damascus steel guard and collar

Coined bronze accents

Stabilized koa handle

Outstanding John. The koa is beautiful and I really like the contrast you got in the Damascus.
