Pearl Valachovic Folder

[Bo]

One of my newest acquisitions by retired Master Smith Valachovic. The black lip pearl on this piece is incredible along with the filework and fit and finish. The pictures do not do it justice, I will keep working with my camera to do better.

I guess what they say is true. Practice really does make things PERFECT! One of the nicest folders I've ever seen.

Bo Beautiful knife. I remember when I first got into collecting, Waynes knives were always some of my favorites and he was also from the NE area so he made most of the local shows. Do you know if living on the Islands has sparked his creativity again or is he still not making knives?

Last I heard was that he was living on the islands happily in retirement.

I have not seen that much of his so I was amazed when I examined this one. The quality of the pearl and the filework speak for themselves.
