"Feather" Cross-over

[J. Neilson]

I've done a heck of a lot of damascus but, hadn't done a "feather" pattern yet. Well, now I have..... might have to try some more of this one. Here's my first shot at "feather" on one of my "Cross-over" knives. Hope you like it.

This Drop-point knife is a variation of my popular B.U.K (basic utility knife). This knife is slightly larger with a wider blade profile. The knife is 6 5/8" overall length with a 3" cutting edge. The knife is forged from 1095 & 15N20 high carbon steels done in a "Feather" pattern with a file worked thumb rest. The handle scales are A-grade Desert Ironwood Burl with a stainless steel handle bolts and lanyard liner. Also, a nice Paul Long pouch sheath.

Looks great. The pattern looks very controlled and symmetrical, impressive!

What a great looking thing.
I really like the clarity of using a lower layer count on that one, it's perfect for the size of the blade.
