Woo Hoo!!!
Mr. Rowe took pity on me and turned my sheath around a lot quicker than I thought… ๐
Walnut furniture, Damascus blade 9 1/4″ TOL…
Made by Gordon Graham out of east Texas- Tiled Damascus
How is it balanced??? Perfectly!!!Kenny Rowe’s website is HERE. ย Gordon Graham’s website is HERE. ย I’d highly, HIGHLY recommend both of them for quality and beauty of their products and their reasonable prices!!!
FCC note- I paid for all the items pictured out of my own money pulled out of my grubby little pocket- So there…
What’s the handle made of, Jim? Desert Ironwood or Cocobolo?
Robert- Black Walnut.
Exceptionally fine work.
Love the moire pattern on that Damascus blade.
My thoughts, exactly.
Spectacular!
gfa
Shiny! How this is it across the back, 3/8″?
Gorgeous!
Oh…Very.Shiny.
Too pretty to use. Very nice.
It’s a beauty!
Envy; that’s all I’ve got.
Very nice stabby stuff there!
It’s a pretty knife, but I’d use it. Lovingly & carefully, but still …
Man, thats a handsome knife. Almost be an honor to be impaled on that bad boy.
Almost. :^)
Very pretty sheath too. I like the fact the leathersmith chose to install the retaining strap on top. When on bottom, the blade will cut or damage the strap over time. Its one of the reasons why many straps are installed around the handle on top of of belt loop.
All- Thanks for the comments and I intend for it to be a working knife.
Beautiful.
Looks functional.
I only said “looks” because I would have keep it for a few years and field dress a deer or two out with it before giving it my final approval, you would get it back after awhile.
Maybe.
Hey Old NFO;
Very nice stabbie thingie, and the sheath looks topnotch.
I don’t think I can afford a knife that beautiful – and it wouldn’t stay beautiful very long with me behind it!
Jon- LOL, sure… sure… ๐
Bob- they are BOTH nice!
Axe- About 1/8th thickness across the back.
NC- It IS a working knife. He showed me one two years old that still looked great!!!
Wow, gorgeous sheath for a beautiful knife. The mokume gane is splendid on that knife. Now I’m having blade envy!
Phlegmmy- It IS as nice as it looks… ๐
