That is a special one. I haven't heard from Scott for awhile. Like your avatar, Zebra Damascus made by gthouse.😀

That is a beauty, congrats Steve!

Considering that the handle is one piece....do you know how he bends the lock bar far enough over? Aside from putting severe torque near the flex point, which would cause the lock face end to bend the opposite way. Please help my poor confused brain!😜

there is a ton of interesting stuff going on with this thing.

I like it, too, Gary. I don't collect Damascus steel per se, but there are one or two blades that are very special to me. The CRK 21st Anniversary Knife with your steel certainly qualifies sir. Now this knife with the unique dog paw Ti bead Scott carved on the day we had to put my pup down is another I'll keep to the end.

The Zebra steel was designed and made for this project any left over pieces were destroyed. I also received one as part payment. I also treasure it. Again, Scott's knife is very special.
