A Dark Twist in O1
Blade is O1 @ HRC 60 I would put it at 1/4 grind maybe a tad more. Shoulderless, with a bit of a tail. The blade has been etched a slate grey that is a near match to the carbon fiber.
I went with a worked nickel silver wedge, and pins, stainless washers, to accent the "bright" hollows on the spine. Also used brass pivot washers.
Scales are "lightening strike" carbon fiber.
Thanks for looking!
EDIT: Blade is 8/8 spine to edge, but due to the geometry, would sharpen as a 7/8

I like it. You have a great flow of steel and scales. Folded it looks a creature ready to rare up and strike. : )

Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for sharing it
It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
