No problem sorry to point out a typo. I guess if you make flawless swords I can let a typo go

Amazing work, I'm just floored over the detail that is in this sword. I would bet the new one is far better than the original in every category. I'm curious about the 1084 for the guard and fittings, Are they heat treated?

Very nice

I just found out about Frank's passing, really a shame. My condolences

Ok this little guy is 4140 but only 4.5" from the edge to poll. Not the most useful hatchet but sort of neat.

Thanks for the comments. Actually a Mauser bayonet was the inspiration for the handle

I will submit my own knife (the only knife I made in 2017). 5160 blade with a heavy etch, blued mild steel fittings with a etched copper spacer. The handle is aluminum core with cord wrap over it. The cord is epoxyed to seal it together
