Mosaic handle of African Blackwood and Sycamore wood. The handle came from a block with 70 pieces of wood. The wood is glued with Titebond 2 glue which is water proof and incredibly strong. The wood handle is as durable as any other piece of wood.
As far as I know, I am the only knifemaker to offer this kind of handle. The 31st edition of Knives 2011 pg. 93 has a picture of one of these handles.
The Blade is ATS-34 heat treated by Paul Bos to a RC 59-60.
The tang is tapered, and the blade has a distal taper.
The decorative pins are stainless steel.
The knife comes with a tooled top grain leather sheath.
Price $165.00 plus $10.00 USPS priority , insurance, and delivery confirmation to the USA. Others charged actual shipping cost.
Payment with U.S. Postal Money order for immediate shipment, or personal check with time to clear.
First "I'll take it" here gets it. Also, e-mail me at lewisknives@carlsbadnm.com
