Nice work on both knife and sheath.....Thanks for showing !
 
Really nicely done. I totally dig that combination handle and the sheath looks really well done. What is your intended application for a knife like this - a small camp knife?

last post here for tonight, but I have to give props here too. I really like your knife. Great job!
 
Very nice knife Marcus!

Beautiful damascus, and the handle looks very nice too!

Kind regards,

Jos
 
Thanks so much for your positive comments guys :).

I think it fits the bill for small camp knife quite well. To be honest though on some of my one of pieces I tend to neglect thinking about it's purpose, because I like the design so much ;).

Here's a shot from the other side of the blade, in case anyone was wondering.

I would love to own that!It looks thinly ground, the san mai damascus is great! I really like the modern/traditional handle combination, the contrast is really nice and the little flair on the sheath near the belt loops (added bonus that it is a low rider) is a great subtle addition to a totally functional design. Overall a great looking user design. I am impressed (plus 26 cm overall- 26 is a special number to me). The only thing I would change is to move your stamp as far down as possible to extend your grind toward the handle and maximize the blade length.

Thank you for showing this to us.
