Here are the finished pics.
The blade is 4-1/16 in long made of Al May random pattern damascus. I carved a couple of fullers in the balde which add another dimension to it. The front and rear bolsters are bronze and nickel silver mokume. I heat colored them and when you move the knife in the light they have different colors like blues and purples in them. I also hid the pivot screw under the bolster to show off more of the mokume. The scales are beautiful blacklip pearl. The liners and backbar are fileworked. The backbar has 3 blacklip pearl inlays that have been cross hatched. The thumbstud is set with a ruby. The screws have also been heat colored gold. The liners have been anodized a bright blue. Great action, lockup, fit and finish. Overall length of 9-3/8 inches.
Thanks for looking,
Chuck
