David Lisch, MS ~ Split Ring D-Guard Bowie

The incredible damascus and luxury materials don't manage to steal the scene from the perfect blade shape.
A pure beauty, and i love how the plunges meet the dropped choil...bull's eye!

Outstanding Work, Dave.

One of the hallmarks of a GREAT artist/maker is being able to make simple designs look fulfilling. You have done this before. Not here; this is not simple.

THIS is complex, but it doesn't look too busy either. That's a hallmark of a great artist/maker as well. Making complex designs fulfilling, not overwhelming.

Caleb, as always it's a treat on the eyes, and elevates their work.

Thank you all again for your thoughts on my work and, Jim thanks for your thoughts I know how many fine knives you have handle so it means a lot to me that you took the a moment to share your thoughts on this knife.

Dave, your control over the patterning in your damascus totally blows my mind. No one can do it quite like you, and I don't recall ever having seen anything quite like this double feather/funkadelic looking stuff.
I like when your knives display the blacksmith in you.
If ever there was a knife that described you as a bladesmith, I'd def count this among the top few.

Excellent photo, Caleb. Brings out the best!

Don't know how I missed this. Gawd, what a fine knife. The flowing-stream damascus is absolutely wonderful, and the blacksmith work on the guard really gives it an extra handmade touch. I lust.
