Like everyone else here, I love that knife. That Turkish twist is out of sight. And I am especially intrigued by the shape of that guard.

Gorgeous, John. Beautiful contrasts in the many pieces.

John,

If you see this, am I seeing a bevel on the spine? Seems like I can almost make that out in the handle sculpting finished shot...

I've seen that on your knives before and it's a very elegant touch.

Eli,

Yep, the spine's beveled. Started doing that to the blade spines awhile ago, and now do it on all mine.

Very nice knife indeed!

Looks great with nice choice of materials, great lines and looks like it is very well made as well!

Thanks for sharing!

Been out in the back blocks away from the computer but had to come in late on this one. John's knives always hit the nail on the head but this one has got so much subtle beauty it's just not even funny. Shape, contrast, detail, knock out Damascus, and then knowing when to say enough. Exquisite is the right word for it.
