I have one blank left about.
They are made my Stu Barker and bead blasted. They have a beautiful convex edge and with a strop on polishing compund go hair popping sharp.
I've done the other three from this batch and thought I would offer this one up as a project.
The three I have done are stunning maple:
Gorgeous spalted beech:
and my own in Elm burr
I was thinking of making one up to sell, but thought I would leave it open to allow someone to choose the finish - handle and heath materials choice etc.
A finished knife with a leather sheath in your hand by RMSD would cost £180, both sheathes (leather and kydex) would be £195.
This knife has been two years in the making with constant feedback from a professional stalker, and I have seen what it is capable of in his hands. I have dressed out two Roe and another friend a muntjac with mine - it handles sublimely and is very comfortable and grippy in a range of grips and gooey situations.
This is a build where the buyer gets to make all the choices, I hope I can get to a custom build for someone again, I must be mad, but I enjoy it.
