Gorgeous knife. And I agree that handle is SWEET!

I love this handle material also. I just had K&G dye and satabilize some. It turned out great. Had it done in brown and natural too.

George got my ni powder from ARC metals in Ridgway PA. web site www.arcmetals.com. Thay have $100 min order. Great people to work with. Another source is Sandy McClure at www.giraffebone.com. She has 1084, 1080, Think she said she had 15N20 as well. The powder i got from her is a little coarser than From ARC but ARC does not have 10xx series. The powder is pure iron and you need to mix in the carbon in the form of graphite. Just a matter of how much work do you want to do in mixing etc.

Hey Jerry,

How ya been? You going to Blade West??. I don't think i am going to go back to Napa this year. just too darned expensive. At least they reduced the hotel cost to 165 per room single or double. Still too expensive for me. Well I'll see you at oregon at least.

Take care.

I really like the way the pattern turned out. The knife looks great.
