Cosimo created another masterpiece. I asked for an old school lamb and Cosimo worked his magic.
Come on postman!

Absolutely gorgeous -- big congrats, Bob!

That reminds me of a beautiful interpretation of a knife ( supposedly) created for our civil war veterans missing an arm.
Some of the original designs had fork tines at the end of the blade.
The sawcut is perfect.

Hi Philippe
Here are three early examples. I cannot remember the name of person credited with design.

Will stop here so the thread focuses on Cosimo.

This week-end Cosimo took part in his first knife-show, near Rome. I asked him to write a little article about it when he has enough time.
