Unfortunately it ended up warped. I sent it off for HT anyway and to see if the guy could straighten it. He couldn't get it straight so I couldn't ever really finish it.

What he did do though was give me a almost exact copy of my design that he ground for me out of S35vn. Here it is pre-wrap.

And the final product.

Now I just need to make a sheath for it.

Edit: Jeez, that one picture made my hand look really long.

I am having virtually the same profile made for me in damascus and ironwood.

Should be done in a month or so. Will post pics.

Usually a Spyderco endura for most utility stuff.

I also wanted a simple fixed blade but was having issues finding one that was the right size. Even on the sometimes small knives, the sheaths are generally huge. So, I whipped these up. Nothin fancy, just a slim drop point with the sheath as small as I could get it.

Its usually carred IWB but I was also experimenting with it carried along the belt.
