I just finished this one up yesterday. I think it is probably one of the best knives if not the best knife I have made to date. This is the first time I have made this design I drew it up a few months ago. I'm very pleased with it, it feels great in the hand. First time I have done a swedge and first time using ironwood too.
This was a tough grind for me but for my first go at it and free hand I was pleased with the results, but dang it was nerve racking!!
.138 AEB-L stainless steel
Desert Ironwood Handle
Carbon fiber pins and lanyard tube
Cork Belt finish on the bevels
Overall length is 8 1/4"
Cutting edge is 3 3/8"
