The blade is 3mm O1 and is 70mm long with a 'scandi' grind and secondary micro bevel. The over all length is 180mm.

The handle is black ash burl and the bolster is buffalo horn.

For the sheath I went for a simple pouch style sheath with no belt loop.
 
Lovely, beautifull, looks like a wonderfull knife !

Good question! I've just weighed it and it's 64 grams without the sheath.

Thanks for that, light as a feather as i thought, and perfect for neck carry in a tight fitting sheath, worn handle down for easy access.

Just my hunting instincts coming out again! A superb bit of kit.
 
Really lovely job there.
Have you considered polishing the Buffalo horn? In fact the Burl will also polish up like glass.. Not saying that it needs it though.:)
