KSR Blades_Burlwood Drop Point Hunter

[Alfredo]

Hi all,
today I received this knife for a recent trade I done, Burlwood Drop Point Hunter by KSR Blades.
Specs:
Maple Handle with Mosaic Pin and Stainless Steel Guard
Forged Blade 1075 Steel Clay Quenched with Subtle Hamon Line
OAL – 250 mm
BLADE LENGHT – 120 mm
BLADE THICK – 4 mm
BLADE WIDTH – 29 mm
Construction – Hidden tang

The handle is really confortable, at least for me (big hands). The Hidden tang construction allows a total weight of 170 grams, and the knife is balanced exactly on the steel guard. The Hamon line is cool to see, need to try if this will really help on edge retention, will see. Good work on the guard, it’s well rounded, well molded. Weldings are really goods to see.
All in all a nice addiction, now it’s time for a new sheath, I’ll start right this evening 
Ciao,
Alfredo

You got that right.

That's the first time I have ever seen a hamon on a non- Japanese blade. Looks nice though.

That's the first time I have ever seen a hamon on a non- Japanese blade. .

Ditto. Looks almost like a loveless drop point. A nice knife.

I'm doing a dangler sheath (my first one) for this knife, hope you like it
ciao, Alfredo
