Hello guys.
Here is something that seems to be assembled by chestnuts. At least the color completely matches. Because of the shape of the blade, I called this knife “Raptor’s klaw”.
Blade –158 layers Damascus steel hand forged of 52100 and 75Ni8. Differentially heat treated with clay. 59 – 61 HRC after tempering.
Handle – Poplar burl treated with hot steam under high pressure. Not stained.
Inlays – copper. Those of you who have dealt with this know how difficult the three-dimensional inlay is. Especially when the material used is not wire, but a plate like this:

At first I decided that I had put a hedgehog in my pants. Then the challenge captivate me and I almost regretted when finished.
The sheath made of 3 – 3.5 mm. cow leather my friend George Petkov.



The price is $ 300 + 20 ensurence.
Since 2 of my knife disappeared at Posts (American and Canadian), I will no longer send uninsured shipments.
