    Good job on the knife - I do think micratra is perhaps the most functional handle materials around. While I do tend to use wood for it's beauty on most of my knives, I've a couple of folks who do want micratra.

    The blade material is already answered as 01, stock removal I assume since 01 isn't so good for forging? How did he do the HT'ing - forge or oven?

    You should post some of your knives - I know there is a knife subforum somewhere on the site but I can't find it today.

    edit to add: Looks like a logo etched on the blade? It's sorta hard for my old eyes to see, but it looks like a really neat logo. How does he etch the logo?
