Hi fellas, thanks for stopping by!
I love feather damascus - I guess it's because I craft my own arrows for my longbow. Anyway, I commissioned Doug Ponzio to forge a billet for me in O-1 and nickel awhile back. The blade was etched, brought to a mirror finish, blued, then rubbed with 2000 grit for contrast. There is a small maker's mark on the presentation side ricasso near the solder line. Stabilized crotch walnut in feather figure was selected for the scales to maintain the theme. Neutral balance under the first rivet. I hope you like it! $450 delivered ConUS and international slightly higher - includes insurance and Paypal fees. Paypal preferred to account tksteingass@frontier.com and I will accept USPS money orders. Maker's lifetime common sense warranty and free sharpening.
Best regards,
TK
