This knife is slightly larger than the previous two, blade measuring at 12 cm.

The guard is made of bronze, to which I applied regular cold blue. The bronze turns to dark brown, then almost blue, then bluish grey. So far the guard has withstood the handling, however the decorative ring behind the fake ivory has had the patina rubbed of, possibly due to excessive oiling and buffing of the handle.

Steel is Elmax, wood is cross cut zebrawood. Blade tang has a threaded rod silver soldered to it and ending with a bronze butt cap.
