Cable Car Dagger

[RLS]

While on Vacation in San Francisco last summer I had the opportunity to ride the famous cable cars. The ride was from Fisherman's Wharf to the Cable Car Museum and back. While at the museum I purchased two pieces of used cable, this knife is the result of one of the pieces.I made the knife in the style of a Price dagger that would have come from San Francisco. The extra piece will go with the knife as will the cable car ticket and the Certificate of Origin.

Thanks for Looking

I was at the same museum last summer too. I thought, who on earth would buy that piece of cable as a suvineer? Well you did, and you made something absolutely incredible!! You should sell it back to them!
Beautiful knife and great idea!!
