Granted its for casting out a giant eyes.
Blade : 8" of 1084. I had actually forged this out last year but found it in the back of my truck(cab not the bed) a few weeks ago.
Handle : 6" cholla cactus. I truly do enjoy working with this stuff, and i like the funky smell when i burn the tang in. The handle is filled with black milliput epoxy putty, which makes it look like the tang is held by pine pitch rosin mixed with charcoal. I cannot recommend this stuff enough, it has a half hour work time, can be smoothed with water, and comes in 2 parts so you can measure it out easily. A little more expensive than the two part epoxy putty from the box stores but definitely worth buying.
The rawhide sheath is just a simple wrap around sheath whipped stitched with raw hide.
