Integrals Knives are made from a single piece of steel to form the Blade, Guards and Hilts. There are no pins in the bolsters. There are no soldered joints to break. Since the handle material is fitted inside a solid piece of steel it cannot be easily knocked off. Very few makers make integrals. I am proud to be one of the few. I have been inspired by Ron Best, Dietmar Kressler and Edmond Davidson, Beautiful Integrals Knives.
Integrals are not disposable knives, they are meant to last many lifetimes. They are for that someone that wants the best they can afford. Damascus integral knives demand very high prices, if you can find them. I know of only handful of makers that make Damascus Integrals.
My style is to use a serviceable handle material like Micarta with Damascus. It is like putting camouflage on beautiful woman. It is going be something that catches everyone’s attention.
I have made 6 Integrals so far. These will also be the last few I will make because of the economy. I just simply can’t afford to make them right now. I have 4 left, and only two of them are Damascus.
Thank you for looking.
