This man is amazing in his knifemaking skills and his artistry with most any materials.....:eek:

1/4" A2 stock with a 5 1/2" scalpel-sharp cutting edge, heat-treated by Mr. Bos, with stunning Abalone inlays not only in the beautifully sculpted Ebony handle but also in the sides of the blade and the spine!!!! :cool:

An extraordinary piece of work, IMHO, with virtually perfect grinds and distal tapers, hand-polished to a mirror finish and amazing detail......like a French-cut border around the face of the handle/blade juncture and then stippled inside to compliment the rest of his beautiful work......and also balances exactly where the blade meets the handle. :thumbup:

Here's a picture with a Desk Knife that I got from him, the beautiful 'sheath' and handle crafted of the same Ebony with a covering of pierced and deep-relief engraved Sterling silver.....

A classic example of FORM MEETS FUNCTION!!!

What an original design of a great looking user (although I'd personally won't be comfortable using such a beauty)! Congratulations!
 
I agree - I bought his French kitchen knife, it's great.

There's a little leaf pattern on the handle that he carried over to the sheath!

Great attention to detail.
 
Dudley,

Why don't I know who you are talking about? :confused: Who is Dmitry? Certainly good work.

Clue me in.

Very nice fellow who learned his skills back in Russia and is living over here now. The scary part is that I think he is going to start forging his blades now.
:D
