I'm a big fan of the Drapers, I like their styles and they are both excellent to deal with.

Here's a set directly from Audra.

Small hunter is 3 1/2 blade with a 3inch edge and the larger hunter is a 5inch blade with a 4 1/2 edge. Damascus guards and Blackwood handle and spacers. Sheaths by Elsie at Yo Yo Leather, Audra's sheathmaker.










 
Ooooooh... I like that!:thumbup: And made by a female knifemaker no less. We should have more of those!;)

Nice pair of knives. Beautiful damascus!

Kind regards,

Jos
 
Audra makes a very wide range of superior custom knives.
These beauties would fit very well for hard use in the field or along side in a nice display case.
 
I especially like the small one. Beautiful curves, a very unique look.
 
I really like the small one! :thumbup: They are a beautiful pair!! Congrats!
 
I got to play with these and think Audra did a fine job. A really good-looking pair that feel great in the hand. I don't doubt that they would happily work all day long.

I shall quote the caption found opposite a picture of two amazing knives
made by Harumi Hirayama, as it was printed in "The world of Custom Knives"
by Roberto Allara (2001) page 10:
"Harumi Hirayama is a very nice lady. It is difficult to believe
that she is making knives".


All the best,
David Darom (ddd)

p.s. I AM joking but this is not a joke....
Audra knows what I really think of her work..... :)
