Hi Guys,

Just finished my first linerlock, this was also the first time I used mammoth ivory and it was quite challenging but I learned a lot.

This has Chad Nichols Damascus blackout blade, I did a new process to gold the damascus for the bolster and clips. The backspacer is a snakeskin zirc done in black and gold.

Polished and contoured the mammoth by hand then with my buffer. I freaked a little when it warped but was able to flatten it.

Fantastic work as always, Mike. From the videos I've seen your knives have some of the best action around, too.
