Hello Gentleman. I just finished this new version of the Art Nouveau model, hope you enjoy it.
Full integral gaucho knife, with 7" blade, forged in explosion
composite damascus of O1/ 15N20 steels. The knife was carved in Art
Nouveau style, with graceful curves. The collar section resembles two
hearts touching each other, and the grooves at the spine and the tang
was mirror polished, creating a beutiful contrast to the etched
damascus. The top of the false edge received the same finishing, and
was carved at it's base, turning this unexpressive spot into a
delicate detail. The premium snakewood handle was carved ressembling a
moving skirt, that add some feminine elegance to this knife. The water
buffalo leather sheath was carved in the same style.

Thank's for looking!
 
you, sir, have remarkable talent.
 
:eek::eek: WOW! :eek::eek:
If I had that kind of talent and imagination, I would not be able to sleep at night. I couldn't even think of this, let alone do it!
Congratulations on one incredible knife. :thumbup::thumbup:
 
Beautiful! I especially love the collar section and the way the handle design flows into the sheath. Excellent job.

I heard Mariano Gugliotta went to meet and work with you. He said he had a great time.

I think perhaps my favorite of your integrals and a beautiful knife/sheath combination.

I imagine it's outstanding sheathed.
 
Thank you guys. Mike, I went to Buenos Aires for the Knife show Mariano organize there, and will be with him again in September when he'll come to Nova Petropolis for our knife show, he's a great guy.
