It has been a very cool project and I am glad Dave accepted the commission for a very large knife. As for the pattern this is typical of the result I get when I tell a maker, have fun and do what pleases you. Dave I appreciate the thread and for sure they knife. :thumbup: It will be professionally photographed and either Dave or myself will post those pics when they are done.

Thanks, Jon

Very nice work!!!

Cool Damascus.

Thanks for sharing with us.

 

[D lisch]

Thank you all it was fun

 

[Lorien]

that damascus looks to me like a gill net. I'd call that knife The Salmon King!
Kind of a Pacific Northwest type thing

Thanks for collecting all those photos, adding captions and generally educating us all. Love your work my friend:thumbup:

Lorien,

I like "Gill Net' but of course that is Dave's choice. I have been up the your part of the world quite a few times salmon fishing. You have the best!!

Jon

 

[Lorien]

have you fished in Sooke, Jon? Phenomenal world class etc and this year is apparently going to be outstanding.

 

[D lisch]

OK We call it Gill net

 

[Lorien]

sweet. 'Gill net damascus'- kinda has a nice ring to it!

 

[Bill Burke]

How did bats get in a gill net?

 

[jklein7401]

Lorien,

I used to go to Buck's trophy lodge in River's Inlet, are you familiar with that location? About a 45 minutes float plane trip from Port Hardy. It has been great fishing there, usually we go late July early August.

As far as bat's in a gill net that I leave with Dave. However since I am a fisherman........... that may have biased the name.

Jon

 

[Marcel54]

OK We call it Gill net

As I told Jon, to me it looks like a spiderweb on crack. But I really don't mind what you call it....I call it pretty cool

STUNNING! Hope the swirled finger paints didn't get on the back of it during photography.

Thanks for sharing. Great job.
