Sorry to hear about your wife Rick. I have been going through about the same. That is why mine was finished so quickly. Trying to keep my mind in other places. John, I still haven't sent it. Plowing snow and all nighters in the ER have made my brain a little mushy.

OK
I have my blade finished forged with dual hammered finger guards as well as a tapered tang.
I forged close to finished shape  so only a couple minutes on the belt sander was required  to get the profile where it is at now.
gonna finish at right around 7 3/4 o.a.l.
time to drill the pin holes  set the bevels and flatten the tang.
I hope jo5h approves.
