Thanks to Mr. Fecas and Mr. Shaw

I picked up this piece recently from a fellow collector and thought it needed a little dressing up, so I called up Mr. Bruce Shaw and asked him to do a little scatchin' on it. I got it back today and I think both of these artists did a terrific job.

Blade is 5" long and it measures 9 5/8" Overall. Camel Bone handle

Very nice.

 

[Kevin Jones]

Yes, huge improvement. That long bolster looks as if it was made for engraving. Good looking piece.
I love how Bruce signs his work so small that it can usually only be read under magnification.

Thanks guys......
Kevin--That's the first thing I said when I got the knife, that bolster was made to be engraved. Thanks to Bruce, it is now complete.

Good move!

I don't care much for engraving, but that's a hug improvement!

 

[J. Doyle]

Drastically improves the knife, although it was nice to begin with. Good decision. That engraving looks great.
