First time I have ever attempted a blade this size - both challenging and fun with a few hair pulling moments.

Blade: 320X46X6 - 52100 edge quenched and "aged" with Ferric.
OAL: 420
Handle is Damascus S guard with Bush Willow and Damascus but cap/pommel. Spacers are brass and s/steel

Sorry about pic quality - lighting was bad.

Thanks all. Guard is a bit over the top but sometimes steel just becomes what it wants to be. Did the aging because I do not like shiny knives. Blade was sanded from 320 # to 1200 # by hand and then aged.
