Hello,
recently I had the opportinity to make a very special knife for a falcon hunter.
Normally the falconer knives have a dull blade except the first few centimeters of the tip to prevent the bird to me cut.
In this case, the knife should be more versatile with a fully sharpened blade.
95mm blade from damasteel, 416 bolsters and mammoth ivory scales.
On the left bolster the owners favorite falcon, on the right his name and gold oval shield.

Thank you guys, I'm still impressed by the engravings (Dimas Sanchez Moradiellos). He is a very humble man and when I asked him for the engraving of the falcon, he told me that animals are not his strength, but he will try ;) So many tiny details in that eye and the eye is not even 3x3mm.

Regards
Nicolas
