8/8 in Blue & White Mokume

8/8 French point with a bit on a longer tail, jimps top/bottom and some simple file work on the spine and tail.
Scales are Blue & White Mokume with a green & pearl wedge, silver pins with small silver washers.
This is kind of a redo.. We had a idea of the blade shape but wasn't set on the scales material.
As the blade was finishing up the decision was made the scales. We both thought the blade design with the Mokume he wanted, would make for to "busy" a look.
So we decided on a more subtle blade design.
I really like the way it came together. The simple blade look really at home with the busy scales.
