    Default 8/8 French Point in Ebony

    This is an 8/8 French Point made with O1 steel, HRC 60. The timber scales were a requested by the new owner, and are New Guinea ebony. The finish on the scales is CA, the pins are nickle silver with stacked brass and stainless washers. The groove in the tang is continuous and wraps the tang 3 times.

    Thanks for looking.
