Karilan Masur Integral Knife

[lcaserapiao]

Hi Guys,

this is my newest knife full. It was forged from 5160 steel. There are 10 "long, 50 mm wide and approximately 5 mm tick near the collar. The handle was made ​​with Karilan Masur Bich Wood. Inserts are mother of pearl.
Thanks for looking.
hugs

I love the clean simple look, although I know a knife like this is not simple to make.
Handle looks about damn near perfect ergonomically, would love to swing er around for a bit.
Nice job!

Nice-looking wood. I've never heard of it. Can you tell me a bit more about it? Is it possible for me to get a block of it?

 

[lcaserapiao]

Samael,

Yes, i think so. Search in ebay!!! This is a russian wood... it's good to work with and accepting of the finish with linseed oil. That's what I used.

Hugs

 

[Samael]

Thanks; will do.

Beautiful work on the knife, too. I guess I forgot to mention that.

Wow, I just looked up Pernambuco on Google Earth. Looks like it's a long, long way away from anywhere.

 

[lcaserapiao]

Yes, Samael, Pernambuco is a state in northeastern Brazil.
Brazil is a continental country, multicultural, and we "pernambucanos" (Pernambuco State residents) are proud of our place!!! Maybe one day you get to know?? You'd like !And it would be welcome.

Hugs.

I used to be a fairly well-known orchid-grower. Do you have orchids (orchideas) there? Minas Gerais is more famous for them, but I know that's much further south from where you are.

 

[lcaserapiao]

Yes my friend.
There are orchids in Pernambuco too. Mostly in region named "zona da mata" (forest zone). there are beautiful and various plants.
