Micke does some great work (although I think his son Andre is even more talented).

For those of you who don't remember, Vladimir Burkovski
made these two amazing pieces and I displayed them in
my second book -
"Art and Design in Modern Custom Fixed-Blade Knives" (2005).

The blade In the first post is absolutely stunning. I have never seen something so beautiful in a knife. I would lve to see a WIP for that type of steel.

You can see a summarized WIP on the making if this knife
in my book "The Art of Modern Custom Knifemaking".

In the book you will find nearly 100 WIP sequences.

I am sure that quite a few will fascinate you and maybe
compensate Burt Foster's WIP in print.....
