Another custom project! COMPLETED - GONE!

[sybo]

I made a knife a couple of weeks ago and had so much fun with the style that I decided to do another one but kick it up a little more! The knife was a "Persian" style grind and I decided to make the new one longer and the handle a bit slimmer to further exaggerate the lines.
It is currently at heat treat and should be back in about a week. When I get it back I'll make the scales out of bone colored Micarta and fine tune the front edge area of the blade on the grinder to make it a proverbial razor!! What do you all think? Jim

Very nice look about it. It should look awesome with the scales you've mentioned for it.

Looks like it would be a good skinner type.   :up:

Got it back from heat treat yesterday! Dark acid etch last night. Will work on the scales this weekend. This one will be wicked!!! Bone colored Micarta scales and Mosaic pins will be fashioned this weekend!!

Finished it up today. The grind angle doesn't show up well in the photos with the darker blade, but this knife screams SHARP! I don't think I ever had a knife sharpen up as well as this one! I an very pleased with the way it turned out. 10 3/4" overall with a blade of approx 6 1/4", 1/8" 01 steel professionally heat treated. It is available. PM me for details.
