Scandi-inspired "fighter", 5.5 inch W-1 blade with a high-polish and hammer-texture, walnut bolster, leather spacer, curly maple and a brass pin.

One of my "extreme scandi's", epoxy-impregnated cord-wrap on a W-1 blade, and a formed leather sheath. Hammer-texture on the steel and the wrap shows a japanese-influence.

A typical "bare-blade" that I sell, in W-1... sometimes I make batches of blades like this to sell to those who would like to make thier own handles and sheaths to create a knife all of thier own.
