Here is a pair of knives I recently finished.
A2 tool steel, HT by Paul Bos, 59HRC.
Blades are just over 3" long 1-1/4" wide at widest and 1/4" at thickest place. Polished.
Handles are Ebony with silver wire inlay, Wooly Mammoth Ivory inlay and Abalone inlay. All inlays are level with the handle. Handles size is just under 4" long 1-1/2" wide and 1/2" thick.
Stand is hand carved from wood, treated with Tung Oil. Flower and leaves are hammered from copper sheet, oxydized and varnished.
 
Normally I will just look at knives and make comments on them myself. I called my wife in from the other room to show her these. Absolutely amazing, the kind of work you do. Outstanding. I want to save the pictures to my desktop.
