Here is one that got finished up late last night. It is 1084-1075-15n20 damascus, pretty much a random pattern with some birdseye along the spine and ricasso area. It has a nickle silver guard and the handle is end cut ambrosia flamed maple. The spacer is black vulcanized spacer and amboyna burl. This is another one going to the Ohio Classic show in two weeks. The two arrowheads are personal finds, the red one is a high grade Ohio Flint Ridge flint. Thanks to all for looking. -Burton

I have always liked your knives, but all the sudden, you are pounding out some amazing damascus and finely detailed knives. They look great. See you in Ohio.
 
Thanks Matt that means a lot to me coming from you. I have always looked at your knives with much admiration. I think that getting laid off from work in February helped my knife making improve. I had a lot of energy and emotion to work off and I did it at all the forge:)
 
Beautiful picture, Burton. The handle material compliments the damascus
well also.
You have learned much, grasshopper:)
 
Thats such a sweet hunter with the wood showing the end grain. Nice damascus pattern and the overall shape is very appealing. Nice touches everywhere I look. Beautiful work!
