The blade is 3-1/8 inches of Al May ladder pattern damascus. The bolsters are Chad Nichols Mosaic that I hot blued and the scales are fossil walrus ivory. The liners are titanium and have been anodized light blue. The backbar is twist damascus and has been fileworked in a raised rope pattern. The screws, liners, thumbstud and backbar have all been fully fileworked. I have also carved the walrus ivory scales with some radiused groves making the handles feel like they are 3 pieces. Overall length is 7-3/8 inches.
Thanks for looking,
Chuck

Nice Job Chuck, I like the the lines of the carved ivory with the lines of the bolster. The Blueing really sets off the blade and ivory.

I like the knife, goes without saying.
But I love the filework that you do on the screws and thumbstuds on your knives. It's a really nice touch and you don't see much of that around.

Another superb Gedraitis knife. The groves in the ivory are a very nice touch, and so is the file work on the screws. That is a really beautiful ladder pattern.
 
Oooo, aaahh!:thumbup:
