Hello.

Have a freshly finished knife.
Its total length is 25.5 cm / 10 inch. The blade's length is almost 14 cm / 5.5 inch , its width 37 mm / 1.45 inch and its thickness 5 mm / 0.2 inch.
The blade is forged of leaf spring steel, the handle is made of oak and bronze.
Its sheath is made of thick cow leather.

Wow, that's a nice one. I like the shape of that knife very much. For a wood handle, I like a darker color myself but that's still a nice handle and it looks to be very comfortable in the hand, like you could use it for a long time and your hand wouldn't hurt from gripping it.

And once again you designed a sheath that compliments the style of the knife. Very nicely done.

You do some really good work.

Thanks a lot!

Yes, it is comfortable. When I shape the handle I constantly grip it to feel when it it is ready. Empiric evidence shows that my hand size is more or less a gold standard. If it is comf for me, than it is usually comfy for most people

I also like how you widen the back of the handle. It's like an added safety feature should the knife slip forward. Well thought out.

Very sharp looking knife! Like the hammered guard and the handle shape. Looks very ergonomic. Great job

Csizmar, a knife that looks so good that it doesn't even need a story. Your work is awesome.

Your bronze accent is perfect. I admire the total package including of course the sheath.

Some people see a kite shield with a cross, but actually it is a hoof print. Anyway, I like them both

No sir, I don’t think so. It proportions are just about spot on, the blade shape is pleasing to the eye, and extremely useful, as is the handle. It’s a very nice knife.
