So it was my birthday recently and I decided to get myself something special. After collecting dozens of knives, much deliberation, drooling over pics from KnifeArt for a few weeks, and wondering if I could afford it; I pulled the trigger, bit the bullet, and got the ne plus ultra LionSteel SR-1 of the titanium + "Lizard" pattern damascus variety. This is my first damascus knife; my first LionSteel and I must say I'm impressed. It's absolutely beautiful and extremely well-designed, with essentially perfect fit and finish. (Also relatively inexpensive for a production damascus knife.) Here are some pics~
