For your consideration: Marko crafted 12 scimi in A2 with ziricote and copper handle. Styled after an old school Dexter with a slightly convex grind. The A2 holds an edge forever and sharpens up super easy. The Ziricote looks way sexier in person than my crappy pics, and feels nice and grippy.
Blade has some slight patina and scuffs from the one time I stropped it awhile back. Sharpened once or twice on Johns 1200 stone. Typical level of Marko F/F. Handle is nice and comfy, and has a simple copper pin mounted into the butt. Feels nice and balanced in hand and nowhere near as blade forward as you might think judging by its length.
I bought this about a year ago, and paid close to $650 if I recall correctly. Looking to get $575 shipped conus, international pays their own way. Not looking for any trades at the moment.
PICS!
Thanks for looking, Cheers!
