What a great piece! Excellent work. I love the leather pattern in the sheath, complements the skull motif well. Also a big fan of the ferrule inlay.

Super cool man. I love the vampire skull on the back. It turns a familiar design into something extremely unique. If I saw this at a show I can imagine myself saying man, there were a ton of incredible bowies there, but that one with the carved vampire skull was especially fuckin sick!!!
 
Sweet!!!! It didn't look at all nightmarish until I saw that buttcap. :D
 
Hello Friends,
thank´s very much for your words!
This knife have this name because, was a real nightmare to produce... 3 blades to the same knife... but i love the results of much study and steel.
Best regards,
Franco.
 
Super piece, great sheath to compliment. That steel 'steals' the show for me. Awesome work, my friend.
