Just for fun, this is a dagger made back in the early 90's. She was hand carved out of 1/4" stock 154-cm two 1/4 ct diamonds, and 18K gold inlays. It was an interesting project, and came out better than I expected. It was the first such piece I had ever attempted. I had recently gone on a trip to Germany, and Switzerland, and was impressed with the new styles of Jewelry being shown. Mostly in exotic materials, with flush inlays of precious metals, and stones. Thought I would see just how it could translate into cutlery. ( She now resides in a private collection in Germany. Odd how thing seem to go full circle!) Opinions?:) Mike and Manuela
