3/16" stock Norris Stainless Gator Skin pattern Damascus, Eggerling Damascus bolsters and mammoth bark scales. I don't like the way the bolsters blued, so I am going to re-etch them, but the Norris steel came out great.

On this knife I have to agree that the blue just doesn't look right. Great looking knife though. That bark ivory looks spectacular and so does the blade. Is the tang tapered.
 
Yep, the tang is tapered...if the bark had some color to pick up the blue in the bolsters, it would work better, but I am going to etch them today.
 
Here is the etched version. I like it much better.

Perfect. I think I will start looking for one of your knives for my collection.

What a knife!

Excellent work as usual....

If you do not mind me asking, what would that go for? Private email if you wish.
 
Very classy knife, I like it. It looks much better now that you etched the bolsters IMO.
