This was a special Christmas gift made by Jake and myself. Jake presented it to his brother on Christmas Day.

J.D. Smith made the awesome pattern welded steel we used to make the blade. Blade length is 11" and overall length is 16-1/2"



The handle is my first attempt at mortised tang construction. Material is Black Oak. Fittings are red brass.



The sheath is made of English Bridal Leather (expensive but I wouldn't say it's any better than regular veg tan leather). Huge thanks to Travis Daniel for the knowledge he passed on thru the Leather Knife Sheath class he taught recently at MCC.
