This knife is stunning! It has an oak handle that I snapped and stained with an "Early American" color and then added a coat of polyurethane. The pommel and guard I did not make, but they are made from stainless steel. The blade has a hidden tang in the handle and is made from a single piece of 1095 steel. All parts were epoxied together. The overall length of the knife is 10 inches. The blade is 4 & 3/4" long and 1 & 1/4" wide. The handle is 5 & 1/4" long and 7/8" wide. As with all my knives, it will come sharpened and exactly as pictured. Thank you for looking!
