Sarcasm Bro, sarcasm...One day, my child. One day.
In the meantime. Um. No.
Look awfully slippery.
Becker's are for usin'!
I concur with you and others. It's like putting italian leather in a Bronco.Those don't look like they belong on no Becker though...
Honestly, I find them pretty hideous. I generally dislike ornate designs, and I especially dislike ornate designs on tools.
However, I have mad respect for whoever makes them. That's some intricate art right there. I can appreciate the art value but would never put something like that on a knife.
back in the day (Victorian?), ornate designs on the then new design metal tools were all the rage. over time, due to cost, and perhaps people just being boring and shallow, tools got to be pretty darn ugly
