Here's one I recently completed. 440C hollow ground full tang blade with full filework, hand-engraved 304 stainless steel bolsters, marcasite gemstone, with Polvadera jasper gemstone spacers, hand-tooled leather sheath. This is from a pattern I've had for 20 years or so, and it's always a good design. The marcasite is a pyrite type gemstone that is regaining popularity as an ornamental gem. The detailed engraving on the 304 is tough, not like carving mild steel or nickel silver. I used the same design motif engraved in the bolsters for the sheath carving.

Here you can see the filework, edgework, and Polvadera Jasper gemstone spacers

Thanks for your interest!
 
Good to see you here, Mr. Fisher. I've admired your work for years -- real craftsmanship combined with the eye of a true artist. Love that filework...

Glad I finally broke down and commissioned a piece!:D

It will be an honor to make the piece for you and yours. I've got something special planned for those double edges... Thanks for your service, too!

And thanks to you all for your supportive comments. I don't make knives for myself; an important thing that I won't forget. I work for my patrons...
