Beautiful man, is it for sale?

Very nice detail with the sheath. The knife sort of disappears into it.
Is the big oak stabilized?

 

[Petr Melicharek]

Hi The knife is sold .. i do only custom orders Thanks

The oak is not stabilized and it is absolutely unnecessary It is the one of the hardest wood i ever work with and it has very little cracks Im talking about this exact one .. i have more pieces of this mud oak from different places and different age and some of the will need some kind of treatment but not this one

Thanks for your questions
