This is one I made for a guy in Austin Tx. Steel is 5160 1 15/16" Wide and 9 7/8" Blade, OAL is 15". Forged stainless guard and spacer with file work. Wood is Burl Maple, From Ray Kirk in Okla.
Hope you like it.

Dana, that is fantastic work!  The profile is very appealing, the file work on the spacer is so concise.  That maple is georgous and the fingerguard fits the style perfectly.

I think this is my favorite from you!  I would urge you to get a professional image of that beauty.

Dana, I hope you don't think I was criticising your posted photo's they were good, I only suggested some pro photos to gain greater exposure to the knife community and to showcase your talent!

No disrespect intended!
