Integral

[Del Raso Knives]

Integral version of my Boot knife pattern. Seems to have taken forever to finish.

Blade was cut from heavy 3/8" 440C.
Bevels are hollow ground and have a hand rubbed 800 grit finish.
Inlays are premium Mother of Pearl highlighted with domed brass pins and Garnet cabochons.
Engraving is by Marcello Pedini, always elegant and masterful.
Added domed brass pins around the handle to compliment the signature domed pin jimping. First time trying this and super happy with the result.

Hope you like it Gents.
