Besides CPK knives, whaddaya like?

My wife surprised me with an early birthday present of a display stand. What surprised me most was her saying it's for knives.
Some scraps of black palm make interesting looking rests until I figure out better stands. I've got a piece from Del Raso on top, and one from Seward at the bottom to keep me honest.

Whoa... That Persian style piece on top by Del Raso looks amazing!

I wasn't familiar with any of Peter Del Raso's work...

I did some web searching and found out that he is an Australian knifemaker and posts sometimes on the Aussie Blade Forums.

Peter is a member here and has posted many pieces in the customs subforum. His work is in the very highest tier of execution and fit and finish. It's great to have one for inspiration. Here are a few.

Am undecided about getting this one but the idea of a first release Bussekin 3V short sword sure is tempting...

16" blade length, released Sep 22, in customer hands now. You might say it's a fullered 3V sister of the TNT-15, released in June 21.

Just saying.

(Not that I care - Also with that one, RolandSan would cut himself )

Gotta love 10v. Some good steel when heat treated right

 

[Tensegrity]

I have chosen.... wisely.
Jakub ( gollik ) is. the. man.

Price point on this quality fit/finish, with excellent sheath, great comms, amazingly quick shipping (czech republic) is a MF steal!

Good gravy these pieces are sweet, all Sleipner!!! The full custom commission 3.5" ('GTC-S'), semi custom commission 5" ('GTC'), and forum sale 4.25" (not named) ergos and balances are just amazing.

And the FK2 also coming in today ( EMCEE !!) makes a fantastic haul even dreamier
