Hello dear Stemians,
It's been a while since I've posted one of my knives, and I've just finished on of the nastiest bi*%$#s so why not make it a post.
This little cunt started off as a regular build, soon become a full custom, and one of the biggest pains in the as so far.
Everything that could have gone wrong did! Nevertheless, I am a stubborn bastard so dealing with problematic ladies is something I do well.
Anywho, I won't bother you with details - I will explain in the comments if anyone is interested.
Stats (in non-retarded units):
Steel - 1095 with differential heat-treatment
Handle from the blade - Golden Phoebe, brass, walnut
Saya - Secupira
Length: blade - 245mm, AO - 375mm
Height: 58mm
Pics - first some from the build, then a nicer ones from the photo session.
This is where I realized I've screwed up the HT
choosing the wood for handle and saya
centering the handle before I start the final shaping
a little bit of hand sanding
And the final product
And that's it!
As always, leave a comment down below if you have something to say.
Thanks for stopping by.
P.S. Spam will be flagged!
Bello e molto curato. Ottimo accostamento dei materiali. Hamon ben riuscito, molto marcato.
Un saluto, nicola

I realize you had a hard time with this knife, but it did turn out beautifully. Maybe you'll remember it more for all the difficulty it gave you (or what you created yourself)? You've got a talent for knives, and in spite of it all, you do enjoy it. Or else you enjoy being miserable. Take your pick. :)

Yep, it was a struggle. But to be honest, the ones that make me work hard are the ones I enjoy working on the most - they test my skill and make me a better knifesmith in the end.
There were a few times I almost went to Hulk smash mode with this one ;)
