One for the Blade Show

[J. Neilson]

I made this one for Blade. The sister blade ( a bowie with ironwood burl) is done, just not the sheath. This one is about 9-10" total length with a drop point blade of 700 layer nickle damascus (1084/L-6). The handle is Pink Ivory with nickle-silver. This was my first time using pink ivory, didn't think I'd be too crazy about it but, I'm really happy with it. Just wish I knew how to make the picture bigger.

J., AWESOME...I love it...Damascus and Pink Ivory...very classy!....

Pretty fancy there! I've never used the pink ivory and have been wondering what it looks like on a knife. I think your choice of NS for the furniture is a perfect choice, too. You are not going to be able to own that one very long at the show, either! Top work AGAIN, J.

Very nice! I look forward to seeing it in person at the show (if it's still there by the time I'm around. )

 

[Daniel Koster]

love that pink ivory....heard you have to work it slowly to avoid burn-out...
