Something else I've been working on:
This is a small every-day use fixed blade I think of as a "Three-Finger" knife, 'cause that's how many I can get on the handle.
The idea is for a capable blade that's small enough to actually carry in a pocket, in a pop-off sheath probably with a belt lanyard.
Steel is W2 with a sand-blasted finish, handles are rosewood. W2 is fun to work with. I differentially heat treated this one and produced a hamon that was clearly visible as soon as I blasted off the quenching crud.
