This is an exceptionally nice bente nueve. It features blood red Central American cocobolo that I personally hand finished to 2000 grit, which brings out subtle figuring and color that simply isn’t visible at the 400 grit most knifemakers finish their wood to. This knife measures in at 29.1 cm in length.

This wood is a beautiful, dark, rich red.

The blade is 5160 spring steel that was hand forged the traditional way. It features the now classic kris grind. The tip is a little straighter (like some Maranao kris), which allows for easier insertion before the waves increase the size of the wound channel.

The blade features two extra thick tang pins. There are a couple of tiny forging marks on the ricasso.

image

The bolsters, housing and latch are all solid stainless steel. Each of the bolsters is double pinned for durability.

This is an exceptionally nice piece, and it’s a nice weight at 4.9 oz. $165.
