Hello guys! I'd like to show you the last piece I finished: An Yataghan (again) knife, with 12 1/2" blade and 18" overall length. Forged in turkish damascus, with walrus handle and gold wire inlay. The sheath is leather, with ostrigh skin overlay and turkish damascus tip and troat, also with gold inlay. I made something that I wanted to do for a long time: Integral fittings for the sheath; no solder of any kind, only the troat clip is not integral (screwed). Hope you enjoy it, thank's for looking.

you sweat talent, dude.
 
Marvelous, Rodrigo. That blade shape is super, and the gold inlay sets it off beautifully.

To quote Dana Carvey, " I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy!" Every time you post a knife I end up scratching my head and wiping the drool from my chin. Amazing work as always and Roger is spot on, nobody does it better.
 
love how well you matched the sheath to the knife! I have to get an integral fighter from you sooner than later....I hope!
 
I do not know what I can add Rodrigo. Just superlative. What a knife. You are definitely a level beyond my friend.
