  • Today marks the 24th anniversary of 9/11. I pray that this nation does not forget the loss of lives from this horrible event. Yesterday conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, and I worry about what is to come. Please love one another and your family in these trying times - Spark

Deja Vu all over Again!!

Awesome thread to read through, really cool stuff guys. Thanks for sharing the progress of this, and even exposing my to the top hat/stovepipe kick. Great looking stuff, and craftsmanship looks pretty great. 👍

That's how you can tell it's real. 😁
Super cool blades. 🤠:thumbsup:
 
It kinda looks like a reverse recurve if you use your imagination. Recurve on the spine rather than the edge. Maybe "RHIcurve" 😆
 
Here's the finished product with an homage to Charlie Campagna with his Trinacria crest on the bolsters!
Wonderful knives, Rhidian!!😲 Thank you for the homage!!
I really like all the markings!! And the proportions are a great riff on the Ancients, both old and "new"!!!!
It was great to watch the ongoing progress, also!!
Thanks for riveting our attentions!! ;)
 
I can vouch for the quality of Rhidian's knives!! Usually my custom knives are Safe Queens, safely squirreled away against the coming 'Apocalypse' :rolleyes:, but this one is often in my pocket, and slices pepperoni with aplomb!!
The quality is, I dare say, right up with Tony Bose knives, one of which I carried for several years!!
Rhidian's Italian-inspired Sfilato;
