Charles Gedraitis had made a beautiful knife for me. The work is excellent.
The blade is 3-7/8in long, 3/4in wide and .140 thick. and made of Al May ladder pattern damascus.
The main bevels are hollow ground and the tip and false edge is flat ground. The bolsters are Rob Thomas reptilian pattern damascus and the scales are ebony.
Fully fileworked on the liners, backbar and thumbstud. He anodized the liners gold and heat colored the screws gold to match. The thumbstud has a white pearl inlay in it. The overall length is 8-5/8in. Precision fit, finish and precise lockup.
Chuck will help me post up the pictures in a while.
Thanks Chuck.

Delwin --After seeing the threads about your recent trouble with another "maker", I'd have to say that your luck has certainly changed!!:D

Absolutely stunning knife. Both the buyer and the maker should be very proud. Congrats! :thumbup:
 
That's a gratifying folder. The filework is Charles at his best.

Good for YOU!
