Hello guys.
The upper arc of this knife quite resembles me a particular nose. That's why it was called that way. :D No bad feelings.

Blade – 168 layers Damascus steel hand forged of 52100 and 75Ni8. Differentially heat treated with clay. 59 – 61 HRC after tempering.

Handle – Piece of spruce cone, Ebony mosaic and American maple.

Guard and pommel – bronze. Hidden tang.

Separators – bronze and turquoise mosaic.

The sheath made of 3.5 - 4 mm. cow leather my friend George Petkov.

I do not know if you know, but Bulgaria is the only country that has not allowed Jews living in it to be deported to the concentration camps of the Germans during the Second World War. There is really no bad attitude here to any other nation. On the other hand, there are a lot of jokes. :)
 
Frankly speaking, I did not even suppose the curve of someone's nose could awaken any discussion. I can imagine what happens if I share some of the usual jokes widespread here ... Anyway, my mouth is locked.
By the way, the nose belongs to a good friend. We'll laugh together.
 
Nice knife. Unfortunately in the U.S. people are quick to get offended by unintentional microaggressions. (The reference in an American context is in particularly bad taste.)

You always take a risk by naming a knife. You've now narrowed down your list of potential buyers not only to the ones that like this particular knife, but also to the ones that don't mind the name (offensive or not). Your call I suppose, but counterproductive from the point of wanting to sell the blade. Not to mention everyone who's now going to be steering clear of your future work because of this fiasco.
 
Fishface, just think that maybe your name has offended some aquatic creatures in some river or lake somewhere. Remember you only have to offend one. Grouse

Great knife, good price.

Idiots who think that they are allowed to push their help on others really piss me off. STFU and keep your opinions to yourself. If you don't like the name, don't buy it. That's it.

That's interesting advice from someone who decided to open their mouth and give their opinion?

Hahaha, so you got upset by something you read on a forum and decided you should speak up, but others should not? And to top it off, you offer unsolicited advice for the rest of us on what we should do, priceless.
