I never get tired of looking at a Fisk. This is certainly no exception. Beautiful images as well.

Thanks for sharing,

Todd
 
nice job as usual CR. I like many of JF's knives and this one looks great. To me, Pearl always reeks of class and makes a Bowie look like it was made for a king.
 
The knowledge in that head and the experience in those hands; no wonder he is a national living treasure.
 
This is an outstanding knife in every respect and so elegant.
The Pearl is exquisite. You certainly don't run into scales like that vey often.
I love Jerry's new Damascus pattern. Outstanding image Caleb!
 
You really brought out the depth look of the Pearl . An outstanding knife ....by a Maker with a lot of CLASS......I feel fortunate , I have held that Bowie ...
 
I rarely know what to say in a Fisk thread, always so classically beautiful and finely constructed
of the most gorgeous materials.
This is a stellar piece of craftsmanship and, Oh, that MOP.
Great layout and image, Caleb.

Every detail "pops" and the depth and flash of the mop really catches the eye. The knife, of course, is exceptional but it is the Damascus that appeals most to me. Pure Fisk.
 
I also had the chance to fondle this one and it is very nice the pearl feels so good in the hand Lots of cool details another fond memory from the Fisk Show. Nice work Caleb
 
Oh yeah, Jerry knows how to make a bowie. This one is probably the best yet in my eyes. I like every thing about it especially the MOP, the thin framed handle and thick black clean spacers. His engraving has taken another step up too.
Caleb, thats beautiful work.

That is spectacular. I have a soft spot for pearl handled bowies and hope to own one some day.
 
Absolutely gorgeous. Stunning. Even though I know it would excel as a knife, I would never be able to bring myself to use that one. It's a work of art.

Flawless photography as well, as usual. Great job.
 
Thanks a million for the great comments, guys! Glad you're liking the knives and images.
 
Thank you for the high quality work Caleb. You did good.
The client is happy with it so I am. Sure was un-nerving to work with that width of Pearl as it is hard to replace. I did pick up some a few sets of it last year or year before but just now getting to work it up.
While digging though the box I found a piece of Gold Lip Pearl big enough to make a knife this size and it was still marked $60.00. There is no telling how long I have had that set. I do not even remember buying it, must have been about the time stag was still $7.00 for big handles. Oh well.
Glad to see it received well, good photo's let you see it up close from every angle.

Another amazing piece of Jerry. I am a suspect to talk about his work. All I know I owe to him because Jerry Fisk taught bladesmiths who taught me. When I see a Jerry knife, it's like I'm coming home. Jerry congratulations and thank you for showing us to Caleb.
