Texas Jim

Blade Length: 12"

Overall Length: 17 1/4"

Blade: EN45 Carbon steel, with a beautiful hamon (temper line)

Handle: Green cow horn, turquoise and ebony

Furniture: Steel guard, bolster and pins

Sheath: Black leather sheath to be worn across the chest (drawn from the right hip)

Additional Info: Comissioned piece. One particular customer likes to encourage me to make knives that I otherwise may not get around to making. In this case he requested a "really big knife that can be worn across the chest" he also provided a piece of horn that I picked up at Romford market years ago.

Unfortuantely the photos don't do the colours or the hamon justice, but you can get a good idea of the scale of things.
