Hunter Collab with Fossil Walrus (PRO PHOTOS ADDED)

[scottishsmith24]

This knife was done in collaboration between Robert Deker and myself, with Deker making this crazy pattern and then me making the knife. The billet is a version of "go-mai" with the outer jacket being made from pure nickel and wrought, then a layer of 15n20, with a core of twisted crushed Ws. For the guard I did a wrought iron S guard with clam shells. The spacers are bronze and leather with some beautiful fossil walrus ivory. Let me know what you think and thanks for looking.

Robert, that is gorgeous! Did you do anything special to temper the steel? I like the blend of brass and leather.

That's very nice. Any chance of a better shot of the guard.

Thanks for the comments guys. RAppleby I am waiting for some better lighting tomorrow to get some better shots. But here is a quick and dirty cell phone video to show some other aspects of the knife.
