Hello Folks.
I finished this knife today and I had the great pleasure to sell to the collector and friend Jon Klein. Jon and I have talked a lot and planning some great projects together.
This is a utility knife. The drop point blade measures 5 inches and a quarter in W pattern damascus (Method Ladder) with 400 layers. The guard is the same damascus. The handle is ebony, with Technical Piquet with nickel steel pins on both sides. The pin closest to the guard through the tang. The buttcap was excavated in ebony with a center pin. The sheath is leather with Buffalo stingray leather insert and damascus button file worked in the same design buttcap.
I hope you enjoy. Jon the knife is still in better hands!!!!!!!
All the Best,
Eduardo Berardo.
