Brute de Forge and Wooden Sheath

(1/3) > >>

4est Trekker:
Good day, all!  Thought I'd post a few pictures of a recent brute de forge I recently finished up.  Here's some specs:

- 1080 steel forged from 1" x 0.187" bar stock
- 6 5/8" oal
- 2 1/2" blade
- 1/8" at the ricasso with distal taper towards the tip and tang
- Recessed rosewood scales with hammered copper washers and brass pins
- Laminated rosewood and padauk wooden sheath with drain hole, shock cord keeper, and copper stud
- Vertical/horizontal combo belt plate, allowing the blade to be carried in any 90 degree orientation
