Shipping may cost a little more but in the end it is a good thing for both of us.Really nice volcanic flow pattern in stone.This primitive mountain man #3, with special flow pattern, black flint blade is hand knapped from banded flowing black obsidian and measures 5 1/2 " (exposed) blade, and the handle is 5 1/2 " made from deer antler, rosette end. Blade is 1 1/2" wide and has a deep black color flow bands throughout from base to tip (this flow band pattern is not easy to find and why the price is a little higher). The cutting edge is a zig zag pattern. The backbone of the blade is nice and thick. Overall length is 11". The knife is hafted by traditional means using sheep gut hafting and animal hide glue mixed with bone dust and other natural trade secret materials (rock solid). The knife is 100% hand made with primitive techniques and methods. The sheath is also handmade to fit knife and it is medium tan 8 oz (thick) Argentine leather with a leather lace tip guard for added protection. The sheath is a right hand stitched with sheep gut sinew and single stitched with 1/8" Latigo lace leather and will fit up to a 2" wide belt.Please read my reviews, view my other handmade items and visit my profile page. Knives are not my only speciality.Each of my art pieces comes with a certificate of authenticity that includes a description of time spent, products used, and historical information of items. I am meticulous about this, and none of my art is out-sourced or in-sourced as "product assembly". Each piece is unique and completely authentically handmade. I do not turn out assembly line art. My knives are meant to be artistic display art, but are extremely sharp and functional to the time period they represent and can be worn in a functional application.No modern jigs or cheaters are used in the knapping of my knives. No expoxy, fake sinew, polyeurthane or aging chemicals are used. Deer antler, hammer stones, flint tools, bone tools, leather, animal hide glue, bee's wax, mink oil, deer hafting, sheep gut hafting, rawhide, wild harvested wood (hickory, ash, and popular), flint, fire, and natural earth ochre pigments, are the only tools/material sources of production in my art utilized. Leather is bought in raw processed flat stiff pre-tanned cow hides and incorporated by primitive softening and stitching methods. Softening methods on the leather will be visible by various marks. Deer antler handles will be hand polished with leather and left in their natural state. No profit made off of shipping, weight is actual packed shipping weight.Legal DisclaimerYou must be 18 years of age to order Knives.
