I do not have a name for it but it made me think of little birds getting bugs as the sun sets. while your BBQen on a hot summer night
 
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 :cool:
 
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
 
have you fished in Sooke, Jon? Phenomenal world class etc and this year is apparently going to be outstanding.
 
sweet. 'Gill net damascus'- kinda has a nice ring to it!
 
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...........:D that may have biased the name.

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

Thanks for sharing. Great job.
