    Default 8/8s 1095 & Black Linen Micarta

    Here is a blade I finished up. It is an 8/8s with a hamon and a twisted tang. There are some fingerprints on the blade but I am not going to retake the pictrures

    Love it! I really like the textured steel against the textured scales. How did you texture the scales? it kind of looks like pitted steel.

    Nicely done Charlie.
