As promised, guys, here is my third completed knife:
Steel: 01 Mirror Finish
OAL 8 1/4”
Blade Length 4 5/8”
Blade Width 1 3/4”
Stainless pins w/ a copper mosaic
Grip Arizona Ironwood pinned to full tang finished with paste wax only and buffed
Thickness at the tang 1/8”
Distal Taper
Time of fabrication -- 13.5 hours
Hopefully young Mr. Tendick will forgive me attempting to copy his work - I don't even come close to his level of accomplishment. They say that imitation is the highest form of flattery and that is certainly the case here. This knife will never be put up for sale or ever transferred to anyone. Doubt it will ever be seen by anyone outside my home but, anyway, Ben, thanks for the inspiration. Let me know what you think.
