So, there we have it. ^^^ the above images are NOT my best visual quality, because I have reduced the filesize down to 50% quality. However, they are here and it's QUICK to post. This is key.

France + Egypt + China + USA = WOW! There is a LOT of ancestry in this remarkable folder.⁠
⁠
The *amazing* knife itself is by the uber-talented Alexis @LecocqKnives from France. .⁠
⁠
The Theme, of course, is of Ancient Egypt and King Tutankhamen's artifacts.⁠
⁠
The Engraving artistry is from born-Chinese master engraver @CJCaiEngraving, who is an American Citizen living in Hawaii, USA.⁠
⁠
Knife provided and available or similar from Paul at @KnifeLegends.com_ What a privilege to capture!⁠LeCocq_KL07.jpg

⁠

Knife: Fixed Fighter⁠
BL/OAL: 9"/14.5"⁠
Material: Ball bearing sanmai⁠
Forged_by: Curt Zimmeermann⁠
Bolster: Ball bearing damascus⁠
Handle: fossilized walrus ivory⁠
Knife Comments: I've only been building knives close to 1 year and it has become a true passion of mine.⁠
 
MORE than meets the eye... @JordanLamotheBlades joined with @SunAndStarsForge to create a rare MASTERFUL chef's knife through steel...⁠
⁠
Model: Oroshigane Chef knife⁠
BL/OAL: 7.5/12"⁠
Material: Oroshigane (hearth refined steel)⁠
Forged_by: Steel made by Emiliano Carrillo⁠
Bolster: Integral bolster⁠
Handle: Bog oak, copper spacer and pin⁠
Knife Comments: This knife is a collaboration of sorts: Emiliano made the steel, using a Japanese re-melting technique to refine iron into blade steel. This is an uncommon material in today's knives, due to the amount of work involved, and we are unaware of anyone ever using this material in an integral-bolster design.⁠
