Well I finished this monster... laugh.gif 1/4" thick 1095 carbon steel heat treated to RC60.  The blade is 10" long with an overall length of about 16 1/4". It's got olive green canvas micarta scales with light grey G10 liners. I has jimping on the spine forward of the handle and the scales are mechanically fastened as well as epoxied. It weighs nearly 2 1/2 pounds.  :lol:

That is my kind of knife.  I think there must be some sorta Freudian-thing going on with me and large items.  Perhaps it is merely a case of wishful thing.

Grand Torino I want to thank you for building this knife for me, I know it wasn't easy and when I first asked you about doing it you had to think on it for a day or two but I'm glad you built it, and it looks great and I can't wait to get my hands on it.

The forge has always intrigued me. I'd love to make something from start to finish. Thanks for the kind words.
