Matt Walker Wharnecliffe

[SVanderkolff]

Finally finished this one. Much easier to make these when you have a surface grinder. Mr Walker supplied the damascus and once again it turned out beautifully. I am not sure what he does to get it to etch so dark but it works every time. The center button is mammoth ivory turned on the taig and the handle slabs are Lace sheoak stabilized at WSSI. The thumb stud is also turned on the taig. Blade and back spine are Matt Walker Damascus. Overall length open is 7" closed it is 3 7/8" the liners are .040 ti . Not sure what else I can tell you but if have any question, comments or suggestions please feel free. Feedback is always welcome and appreciated.
Thanks
Steve

Thats a great looking knife! I hope you don't mind me saying it looks like a very artistic expresion of a Tucan bird. I really like the combination of the wood, ivory and steel; it looks very natural. It's beautiful!

Wow, the darkness of that etch is amazing, great knife! I agree with Otto about the toucan resemblence.
