    Thanks Bill , here are couple more shots of it , I have been a big fan of Bill Burke s work, I have learned a lot from him and he inspired me lot to use exotics on handles along with using San mai on most of my blades [​IMG]

    How nice a little deba is, Mert. It looks quite slender, any reason behind that? More or less, it looks like an ajikiri.

    Thanks Chanop , it is 150+mm at the edge , lcame out more like a Ko deba or
    Big ajikiri as you said , next ones will be taller and will have more standard deba proportions unless I make mioroshi ones
