Wow! I haven't been here long (Bladeforums) long but I've been in this world for 52 years and that is the first time I've ever seen a corn cob handle. I see it is stabilized. How? Is it durable? Love the look. That knife is a work of art. Wish I didn't have 2 on order already. Good luck with the sale.
 
This one is a killer, Mr. Withrow.

Glad to see one up from you again.

I'll be keeping my eyes peeeeled.
 
Does the 1095 run through the whole knife or just the cutting edge of the blade? Is the 1095 the core of the knife with the 416 forged or clad to it? Please forgive my ignorance. I am very tempted and the pictures are drop dead gorgeous.
 
Mr. Withrow,
The knife arrived today and the photo's don't do it or the sheath justice. The craftsmanship is superb! Thank you, very much.
