Ira, I'm sure glad you posted that second pic, because the first one looked like you had just received your first custom Butter Knife. :eek:
But the second pic does show the full shape of the blade and it's a Beauty!
Congratz Ira... Nice work Bill
 
I apologize, I am just in awe at this Masterpiece. Are you READY for this?

OAL is 9 1/4 inches. Blade is 4 3/4 inches with a 4" cutting edge. Obviously it is Mirror finished.

The steel is forged 52100 3X Quenched and 3X Tempered. Flat tapered grind from Edge to Spine.
Handle material is 1" brass Guard, 1" Black Water Buffalo Horn bolster with a thin brass spacer, Stabilized Whitetail deer Antler sanded to give it an "Ivory look" then another thin brass spacer, 1/4" Black water buffalo horn, 1/8" Brass Butt cap.

The "WOLF" will be stamped on Bill's famous leather sheath. I was a little confused. Bill clarified this for me.

What an absolute Gorgeous knife. I cannot wait to hook it to my belt!!!:D :D :D

Thanks Bill...........Ira
 
Wolfmann has been very kind, towards my work with all his praise about his new knife, and I THANK him and all that have posted, for your nice compliments.
Wolfmann has been a pleasure to make a knife for, as so many of my customers have, but he e-mailed me to start, with what he had in mind and then totally intrusted me to come up with a finished product to his satisfaction. I had some problems getting the materials for his handle which caused a considerable delay in getting his knife finished
but he always understood and would e-mail me saying " just take your time, and when your finished your finished" no pressure at all.
Thank you wolfmann you are one :cool: customer.

Bill
