Here is one of his last ones realization. He wanted to create a "folder Bowie".
Every year for the Blade Show of Thiers he created a knife which its friend Yann Le Baillif will engrave, here is thus their 2013 collaboration.

During a stay in Japan in 2010 when he obtains the first prize of the Seki Balde show he acquires some steel made in Japan.
