I did a blind swap (I'll make a knife for you if you make one for me) with the talented slipjoint maker @Sean Yaw
He is happy with the fixed blade I made for him and I recieved this beauty!
Bronze liners, brass bolsters and pins with rosewood scales. All will patina darker and will pick up character over time.
I'm very happy with this knife!

Beautiful! Love the bolster. What blade steel did he go with for this one?
 
Pierre Yves Joyeux -maker • L'Aurillac - model on the Rideau Canal in Ontario with CelloDan CelloDan :cool:

The bridge in the background is a swing bridge, so well balanced on the center gear that one attendant can push it to swing out of the way for boats to pass under. Was a thing of beauty to watch.
