Custom Stub Tail

Here's one that's a little different (at least for me). The owner sent me a idea of what he was looking for. I few drawings back and forth and this is what cam out.

The blade is 3 1/4" long cutting edge, 8/8 tapering to 7/8 Spanish point with a smile.
Swayback spine with hash mark jimps on top.
For my modest grinding skills, this blade was a challenge. The long smiling blade and short tail made for a interesting time in front of the grinder.
I happy with the way she came out.
Scales are horn with ivory colored acrylic, silver pins and small ss washers.
