I just finished this one for one of my regular customers as part of my "learning how to make my own folders" process.
In case anyone's wondering, I agreed to make the reblade as Mr. Emerson doesn't offer san mai blades and because one of the requests from my customer was a no-wave blade.
To keep things clear, I also engraved "Base knife: EKI Horseman. Work by AES" on the inside of one of the liners. Can't take a picture of that without disassembling the knife, but it's easily readable with the knife opened.
That said, here's the knife!
Customized Emerson Horseman
Base Knife: Emerson Knives Horseman.
Modifications:
- San Mai Damascus (carbon 1010 and stainless 304, with a D2) core re-blade.
- Deer stag handles.
- Mokume (brass/copper) dovetailed bolsters, backspacer and opening disk.
Much more (and bigger) pictures on the Gallery of my website:
