Happy 250th birthday, America! I wanted to do something special to commemorate this very special 4th of July that happens only once.
I began with a block of Ash wood and used my lathe to create the classic Coke bottle design for the handle. I combined 2 different colors of leather dye to create that gorgeous color. I lightly torched and sanded the wood to bring out more of a contrast with the grain. The blade is made from 80CRV2 steel, which is highly regarded for its toughness and edge retention. I made the hand guard from an extra piece of the steel itself. The overall length of the knife is 11". The blade is 6 & 1/8" long and 1" wide. The handle and guard are 4 & 7/8" total length with the handle being 1" wide at the widest and the guard being 2 & 7/8" wide
I still wanted to make it more unique, so I ordered 2 commemorative quarters and counter-sunk one of them into the handle and applied epoxy overtop of it to protect it for maybe another 250 years! The other quarter was placed in a floating display for you!
As always, the knife and quarter will come exactly as pictured and the knife will be sharpened. Thank you for looking and God bless America!
