Scagel type knife by Gudy Van Poppel

[Jos]

Damascus blade. Leather/nickel silver/bronze/sambar handle. Snakeskin sheath. Fantastic fit & finish. Made by dutch knifemaker Gudy Van Poppel. I'll let the pics do the talking:

Kind regards,

awesome piece. I'd sure like to swing that one around.

Can't say that I see a lot of Scagel in that knife, but I certainly like what I see.

Maybe I should have called it "Scagel inspired" instead of "Scagel type". Anyway, glad you like it!:thumbup:

Kind regards,

You can't really get the feel for that knife unless you see it in person. Not only is the workmanship first rate, but it is HUGE!!!!!!! Gudy told me that he really likes Scagel handle designs, but not the blade shapes so much, so he does his own little hybridized version.

Well he did a truly superb job with what he likes more and
what he likes less.......

All the best,

To get an idea how the sheath works:

That's not me in the pic, that's Gudy, the maker.

Kind regards,
