My first damascus knife

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~

Congrats! I have the Raindrop and love it. It takes an insane edge! Waiting for them to get another Iguana in stock .... would like to add that to my collection.
 
Puts mine to shame, nice buy on that one. Don't think it will ever lose its price. Trully stunning

Beaut photography!
The lighting really highlights the damas steel - sweet score:thumbup:
 
@Jesse - congrats! The SR-1 continues to be my favorite Lion Steel and of course, their damascus editions are a sight to behold!
I love Chad's lizard damascus!
Great shot of the damascus, Rick! Makes me want to add some of his Lizard to my modest Nichols collection... :D
