Kevin Klein ‘Needler’

[Dawkind]

A friend of mine turned me onto this young and upcoming Bladesmith from the Northeast after seeing a few of his knives at a show in Texas.

I contacted Kevin and he was able to make me a prime example of his ‘Needler’ in his wonderfully intricate Damascus, scales from some great Mammoth Ivory, and a blade slip of snakeskin...quite a nice little ensemble.

Very hard for me to photograph but the only thing Kevin doesn’t do himself is engrave his Mark, a stylized ‘K’.

Very nice work indeed

Fantastic knife, the damascus pattern is mesmerizing and the overall combination flows together nicely.

I was blown away by his work when I saw it at the same show. His attention to tiny details was superb. This kid is good...I mean real good
