That is a very nice looking blade, thank you for sharing.

thanks, i appreciate this wont be to everybody's taste but too me it was crying out to be cold blued... this finish i have found is actually pretty resilient to ware. takes several applications to get a full even coat and a deep satin black/blue. i used ballistol quick browning

I saw the hawk up for sale and glad i did the quality and finish of these knives is excellent value for money is also great. The knife fit perfect in my hand also the weight gives it a real heavy duty feel.i was so pleased with the hawk i had to order the raven. Only problem i have is if the wife knows i have two but needs must. Thanks again mark.
