Here is a dagger I just completed. My Damascus of 1080 and 15n20. All fittings are same Damascus. Handle is African Blackwood that is double spiral fluted. Sharp and big. Blade is 10 1/2 inches and overall is 16 1/4 inches. Hope you folks like it.



 
I am asking myself: Is it nice, or... it is nice. No man, that is awsome!

Naaah.. still words cant decribe it, but you feel what I mean, when you look it, you know...

Can't imagine what will be holding it. Instant stroke, may be. Hmm...

+1, Maybe your best work todate!
 
Beautiful work Dan. I like the photos, too, especially the maps. Gives it an adventurous flavor.
 
I love that blade! Very nice work!

Dan,

This is an excellent bit of work. Fabulous lines, immaculate grind and the pattern you chose for the fittings and blade is solid. I can only imagine it in a flaming feather pattern, but it is stellar just as it is.

I hope your sheath is similarly fantastic.

I have seen quite a few exquisite Dan Graves daggers in various publications and this is another.
