Chuck - very nice folder! The materials compliment each other nicely. That basket weave really makes quite a nice blade.

Boy, do I ever like Rados damascus. The Devin Thomas stuff looks fantastic as well. Great looking knife, Chuck.

Superb! I love the contrasting look at different angles -- materials top shelf throughout. Thanks for sharing!

That is a beautiful knife!! I REALLY like that one!!

Chuck, Very nice lines. How do you attach the bolster with only one screw showing ? And the rear bolster with none ? ( I like it!! )
If I may make a suggestion,the filework could be extended forward to the front of the handle. This would improve the flow and remove the abrupt transition, from blade to spine, that really grabs the eye. Overall a nice clean knife .
regards, Don

Wow, I've seen a lot of Damascus, but that is by far my favorite.

It probably helps that I'm searching for a "gents knife" for work and this thread popped up when I searched that title, but still, excellent piece there!
