This is a knife shop in my state. They have some interesting work done on the blade faces and I thought I'd share. I'm going to pick up one of these knives sometime soon.

I think it's called "jewelling" Z

Yup your right some companies out there do it for gun parts but also do it on knife pocket clips, and some blades, I saw a link to a site like that a while back, plus this place had colors avaliable too! they used spydercos as examples maybe someone could post a link...

WOW! When I first saw them, I thought they were heavily dimpled. I had to read the "How they are made" section to make sure. That is a nice looking effect. The fact that they harden their knives to Rc58-60 is very alluring too. I wonder how thin the edge is on those French Chef Knives?

Thanks for sharing this! I have to bookmark that site. I may have to add one to my block.

440C? They mention it in the wood carving section. One is D2 @ 60, the other 440C @ 58-60, which is what the others are advertised at.

Thanks for that jeweling link , I love what they do to all steel handles.
I love the look of brushed steel but it mars and scratches so easily.

Yeah, I was thinking about getting a pocket clip jeweled but for $15...I might just save up for another knife, lol...
