Hey Gang,
My son Jim has been making Custom Knives for a couple of years now. He will be making knives this summer to help with next years fall tuition.
He makes fine knives and they are as sharp and as strong as my own.
Jim just finished this one.

Overall Length: 14 3/4 inches
Blade Length: 9 inches
Steel: 5160 at 58 rc
Thickness: .230"
Weight: 12 3/4 ounces
The handle is made from two different sections of California Buckeye Burl, mated to a very nice piece of Zebrawood.
The Forward Raked Double Quillion Guard is made from Brass.
Jim is asking $375.00 for this one.
It does not come with a sheath.
Let us know what you think of this one.
Thanks,
Mike..........................................
