The other blade

I turned the extra blade into a knife from my previous hunter order. Got the idea for the sheath while watching Auction Hunters on Thursday night. They showed an old antique trunk that had a fabric diamond pattern under the trunk lid. That patter really registered in my brain and I had to try it on a sheath. The knife has a 5 1/2" L-6 blade, the usual wrought iron fittings with a brilliant piece of koa I got from Mark from Its a Burl. This is one of those piece of koa that can be better appreciated held in the hand to watch the different ways the light is refracted in it. Mark says its got a lot of flash. The knife is 10 1/2" overall.
