Here is something that i have worked on for a while,,the handle is made from a hippo tooth,its interior is ivory,the outter portion is enamel just like we have on our teeth,ive never seen this for a knife handle,and it was quite an exsperience for me,it has a curiviture in the handle swinging outward to the right,has maple burl pommel,nickle guard,440c mirror polished blade,total filework,a definate one of peice,measures 8 3/4 overall,

I like it. Great looking knife!
I especially like how you kept most of the natural surface on the tusk. Overall, a unique and great looking knife.
