Just finished this knife and sheath today. Blade is 1095 HC steel and is approx. 7" long. Overall length is about 12 1/2" long. Guard, pommel and ferrule are all mild steel. Did the Aqua Fortis treatment on the maple handle. The sheath is made out of vegetable tanned cow hide and the fringe is made out of elk hide. Made the toggle style button out of maple. Fun knife to build.
