Hello everyone, I show you the last thing I have done, an order from a friend to use on their trips to the mountain. It is 1095 steel about 9.5 inches (24 cm) long, 5 inches blade (12.5 cm), and 1.5 inches wide (4 cm) with a spine thickness of 0.2 inches (5 mm), with an edge hardness of approximately 57/58 RHC. The grips are made of black G10 with red spacers and the sheath is kydex lined with leather. It is my first attempt to do a differential / hamon quenching. Greetings to all IMG_1915.MOV
