this Knife is a custom order, the blade is 15N20/1080 in a swept ladder pattern, the blade is a little less than 1/8" thick 7/8" wide and 4" long in dagger pattern. the hilt is a mix of stirling and fine silver with a 10K rose gold spacer the wood is bog oak (nasty stuff to work with) and the pummel is a metor, both ropework spacers are fine silver. the sheath is leather with stirling silver fittingsand a metor set in the bezel and a anathest set in the tipall work was done by myself or my partner Peter Swarz-Burt. the over all size is 7 3/8" and the thickest point in the hilt is about 1/2"

Nice little knife, Matthew. Good use of silver on your fittings, and I like the stones. The background in your pics doesn't look nearly as Scottish as a nice tartan would! ;-)
