Another abomination of a knife where I combine a few styles to make this modern Japanese Kwaiken style Tanto knife with a false edge. Made an interesting 2-part Micarta/leather handle with a tsukamaki finish. Added to the tactical styling by doing some jimping on the spine and giving it a custom Kydex sheath.
Enjoy this face-paced recap of all the steps it took to make this knife. As always, hit me up in the comments with any questions.
