Phoenix Flame - Art knife

[DirkLootsPhotography]

Before I moved to the US I did an amazing course with Bertie Rietveld, and this was the outcome of the course. It has changed the way I approach knifemaking and I would recommend this course to anybody that wants to improve their knifemaking skills. Bertie Rietveld is a real modern day master. Blade is Bertie Rietveld Ladder damascus, Bolster is Bertie Rietveld Nebula damascus, Handle is stabilised maple burl. Thanks for looking. Dirk Loots

Very cool! I love the materials and color theme you chose, and the design flows very nicely. Great work on the photography and editing as well!
