Amazingly cool integral.

The inlay is carbon fiber with copper (I think) thread interwoven (I have a Terzuola with this as handle scales, and RJ Martin is also using this for his Q36 Overkill interframe). Have heard it called "Lightning Strike" CF. It surely must be made for a real-world application, e.g. a carbon fiber that dissipates static electrical charge buildup ... e.g. safely conducts, say, a lightning strike on an aircraft wing or helicopter fuselage to avoid major structural catastrophe.

But back to the integral... tell us more. Chad Nichols damascus of what type/pattern?

Gus, Is the integral for sale? What would be the price for this, or a similar piece?

Thanks for the explanation, Rob, you are all correct.
This knife was an order. Thanks for the words.
 
Very appealing knife Gus.. Most everyone on the forum would instantly know it was made by you.. I think the design is really unique and bold.. Regards, Rich
 
great knife. So much coolness going on.
So, who wants to place bets on when we see a pirated copy on ebay? I give it two weeks- faux etched damascus et al.
