This is one stunning little blade!  The amount of work, skill, and craftsmanship put into this blade makes it an Elite Series blade.  It is an impressive piece of funtional art.  The blade is in house hand forged Damascus. 1084/15n20 high carbon steels.  After forging out bars of random pattern I then cut 4 equal size pieces, surface ground them, then restacked then up for a final forging session.  Usually when forging damascus I will forge really large bars that I can make several blades from. This blade was the opposite of that.  This was one small billet forged into one small blade.  Makes it even more special. See the photo of the final 4 pieces of damascus that I combined to forge this blade!  After the forging the blade went through a lengthy heat treat process resulting in a tight grained tough blade that takes and holds a screaming sharp edge!  The blade has been etched to reveal all the random pattern layers. Truly one of a kind that couldnt be reproduced even if i tried.  The blade features free hand ground hollow bevels, skull and bones "Grail" engraved touchmark, hammer forged texture left on the flats, and a small sharpening choil.  The hollow ground geometry makes this little edc and extremely sharp cutter! The guard is a hand forged brass with dual solid brass pins.   It has been taking to a high polished finish.  The handle is Real Vintage WEstinghouse "LE" Micarta I sourced from the Avondale Shipyard in Louisianna.  This handle material is very old and was used in Battleships for electical insulators. The LE version was WEstinghouses Marine Use micarta.  This stuff is incredible. Way better than any modern micarta made today.  This nearly 100 year old material even has the proof of age with the dark oxidation visible on both sides of the handle. The darkening is something that happens natural and takes centuries to happen. This handle material is also vertually indestructable.  Nor is is succeptable to moisture or humidity.  This is the reason why is is one of if not my favorite handle material to use on my blades.  Not to mention this stuff is very limited and expensive when  and if you can find some.  The handle also features 3 hollow brass pins/rear lanyard pin.  This blade comes with your choice of Right or Left handed custom leather belt loop sheath/vertical carry.  This sheath will have a higher level of detail and time spent than base model leather sheaths. Will include some ornate hand tooling and one of a kind stain/antique work.
