This knife is soooo sweet. The blade is Daryl Meier’s Damascus clad which consists of a center core of 52/100 ball bearing steel sandwiched between 80 layers of 1095 and A203E steels. I have been looking my whole life for a knife like this. I am taking this one to convoy training at FT Lewis, WA, and then to Iraq. The blade is 4" and hollow ground to a 0 bevel on both sides. I can't wait to use this knife. I am going to keep her nice and sharp for SD, but I will use it for light cutting tasks. I packed my Spyderco Sharpmaker just in case, along with a tube of MAAS, just in case I get any rust. Trust me on this one. Photos don't do this knife justice!!!!
 
Photos do not do his knives justice. They are sleek and strong and sharp, and conceal so well, you might forget you're carrying one. :)

I have a small Pesh-Kabz and a Cave Bear myself, and I want the large Pesh-Kabz, too.
 
Stunning! I saw one of the first editions of this knife in a local shop and have loved the looks of it ever since. This is the first I have seen in Damascus. Amazing knife you have there. Congrats!
 
Whoa man that is sweet, cant wait to see it in person, I bet that thing is sharper than all get out.
 
That's a great-looking blade, some really nice damascus. Handle scales are G-10, I assume? Great shape for both utility purposes and SD. Looks like it would perform well on food prep too. Hope it serves you well!

Peace.
 
bud makes some cool stuff, i have a 5" M2 pesh kebz and a amoeba, they are my fav edc FB's.

did your kwaito come with the MCS or MASS sheath? for me the MASS works 10X better FWIW. MCS just didnt work for me.
 
It came with the MCS. I am thinking about ordering a MASS from him. I like the spring clip from it.
