Recurve Fighter

[Cody Hofsommer]

My latest, a W1, raised clip, recurve fighter with hamon. This is only my second hamon, not to bad, but could be a ton better. The handle is dyed and stabilized curly Maple. The guard is SS with G10 and brass accents. The pin is domed SS. It's 13.5" overall with the blade being 8" and .235 thick at the riccaso. The sheath is my sad attempt. W&C 8-10 oz leather with Damascus stud. Let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Cody

I think it came out beautiful. I love the wood . I love the guard , I love the Damascus stud and I love the swoop in the blade. I think you did a great job on the Hamon too. Good job bro !

Cody,

A beautiful build! Great blade finish, love the profile along the blade and right through the handle butt. The flat work on the handle adds to the overall appearance.
Just a great build in every way. I'd have to keep it

Thanks for sharing, Fred

Absolutely sweet looking knife. The only thing I would change would be the owner!
