Wow! How did you mask the fuller to keep if from etching?
 
Hello everybody and thank you for your comment.
Sorry "jdm 61" but I don't understand your question.
"Jammer Six": this is my interpretation "left hand dagger". At the time this dagger was used in duels in addition to the sword that held it in the right hand. the ring serve as a support for the thumb for thrusting blows. It evolved into a complete protection that covers the whole hand.
Thank you to see my work.

Jean-Louis, it appears that the fuller groove down the middle of the blade is not etched which gives it a very cool contrast to the feather pattern. I was wondering what you used to keep it that shiny black color??

So elegant !

Perfect execution as always, but the design is what draws my attention - great work Jean-Louis!

Marvelous! I'm so happy that daggers feature significantly in your repertoire, we need more nice ones to look at! The gold inlay is a very nice design in particular.
