The smiths who have competed on the History Channel's Forged in Fire have an auction site on Facebook.  I really liked this knife and managed to have the winning bid.  However, it didn't come with a sheath, so it was time to dig out my leather tools and make one.  I think that piece of stingray has been around for 10 years waiting to find a home.  I think the next time I do one like this again (because of the large guard) that I'll probably use a frog.

The knife is too pretty not to post!  Made by Dustin Rhodes, FIF Season 4 Episode 2 winner (also Season 1, Episode 1 winner of Master of Arms).  9260 steel spring for the blade and 1018 mild steel for the guard.  Stabilized elk tine handle.  Blade is 7 1/8 inches long.

Dustin Rhodes makes some pretty impressive knives.  I have a couple from Don Halter (another FIF winner) that are pretty outstanding as well.
