Good day to you all, children of Gaia :)
I always wanted to make a knife with a more gentle, elvish appearance, but unfortunately didn't have the skills to decorate it accordingly, until now. I was lucky enough to find this unbelievable gentleman at devianart, who makes extraordinary floral and other miniature sculptures/amulets, so I stalked him and persuaded for a coproduction. And now I can happily present you the result. :D

It is a small damascus knife, with a blade hand forged by me of 5160 and L6. It has 240 layers.
The knife is 21 cm long, the blades length is 10.5 cm, it is 32 mm wide and 3.5 mm thick.
The handle is copper and buffalo horn with Manuroartist's outstanding ornamentation.
Hope you guys like it as much as I do :)

You can find Manuro and his beautiful works here: http://manuroartis.deviantart.com/


It is 380 usd ;)

Very interested just hoping to see the spine and know what type of tang. Also is the handle carved horn? Thanks

It is a stick tang type of knife, unfortunately I don't have a pic showing the spine (nothing interesting there, it's smooth), but if you wish I will make a picture showing it tomorrow.
Yes, the handle is carved buffalo horn ;)
 
Amazing carving and great Damascus as well.
What are the measurements?
Are you supplying a sheath?
 
That is the marriage of two great pieces of art. Your damascus is beautiful, as is carving. Seems priced too low for what you have.

Thank you. :) The knife is 21 cm long, the blades length is 10.5 cm, it is 32 mm wide and 3.5 mm thick.
Yes, I can make a sheath to it, of no extra charge ;)

I am very happy that you think so. :D
As for the price, you know how it goes. This knife is an artistic experiment. If people will like I will make more. But if not, than I will have a special piece on the shelf ;)
