One Off Necker

[J. A. Baker Knives]

Here is a little necker I just finished up for a gentleman that wanted a smaller knife to carry while out motoring on his bike. The blade is stainless Damascus with a slight tapered tang and filework down the spine. The scales are Ironwood burl with sapwood inclusions over copper and black G10 spacers. It is really comfortable to hold for a smaller knife. Thanks for looking.

Love this one Jeff!

This is really lovely Jeff. Looks like something you might dig up out of an ancient Egyptian tomb. Would have been used as an asp killer (the Egyptian Cobra)

The sheath is a let down though - will serve the purpose but...

No matter - your knives are so excellent.

Beautiful wood. I would suggest more than a one off.

Have to agree with RayseM about "lovely" and the sheath. Such a wonderful looking piece really demands pantaloons to match.

Thank you for the kind words. This knife will be well used like his other knives and I don't like using leather for a neck sheath, especially when used on a bike with a blade this pointy. Function before form on this sheath in this instance. A more fitting sheath can be built at any time if he chooses, just not for neck carry. One of my quirks I guess. Thanks again.
