I picked this up from J. Michael McRae, at the Atlanta Blade show.

I'm really fond of it. It's quite simple and functional and fits well in the hand, which is what I was looking for. The blade is hand forged 1095, and it's differentially hardened (you can even see a very faint hamon-looking line, though not in the pictures I took). It came with a very nice edge on it, and I suspect that it should keep well. The handle is Rosewood, and the fittings and cablework are nickle silver.

J. Michael McRae's site is www.scotiametalwork.com by the way.

Note: Sorry about the pictures... I couldn't see the fuzzies on the blade until the flash went off.





PS. That's Matt's fine stitchery, in the background.
