Not mine. Larry emailed me this photo and I thought you might like to see it.

Yes, Larry's talent is utterly amazing.
Besides the beautiful dagger, that sheath is an outstanding work of art.
He just keeps cranking them out.

Here's a few more photos from the CKCA forum:

Just more proof that Larry is truly one of the best knifemakers in the world.

Just more proof that Larry is truly one of the best knifemakers in the world.

And is also one of the best, if not the best sheathmaker in the world.

It is ancient walrus ivory.

Mr. Fuegen's work is something I aspire to.... don't think I'll ever get there but I have to have goals to guide me. My father in law's best friend has a Fuegen he totes around at the Rendevous and I look it over every time I see him.

Thanks for sharing the inspiration.

Fuegen is an artist in so many crafts. His work is almost overwhelming.

Pleasure seeing that Keith. I have been a huge fan of Larry Fuegen since seeing some of his knives several years ago.

He has an amazing variety of skills and he does much if not most of his work by hand.

Spectacular. The close-up shots really reveal the maker's attention to detail. One of these days I will break down and buy a dagger.

Larry's work is as it should be.

He never disappoints.

Each piece is more fantastic than the last.
