Just about to wrap this one up. Just needs an edge and a price tag. After breaking the damascus lock on my new integral design I just had to get back on the horse that threw me. Will wrap it up in the morning.
This is my Double Trouble D/A with 3-1/2" Devin Thomas Sharkstooth Damascus Blade, Bolsters and Backspacer. Lovely green and blue mastodon scales.
Chew Voodoo Pivot Bearings. I managed to not screw it up yet, but it's still early :D LarryD
 
Larry that's just beautiful. That knife could go either way in my opinion. It could be just busy enough to make you sick or elegant. You did something right because it moved to the elegant side.
Put a BIG price tag on it, it's worth it!
 
Larry you've got 2 beautiful blades there, I wouldn't be able to work for the tears in my eyes if I messed up something that pretty. It's not like the old scrap iron I work with. Keep up the good work
 
Larry, That is nice. I havent seen the Devin Thomas shark tooth before. Very cool design on the knife and its DA also?
 
Larry, if you change your mind and want to scrap it I'll be happy to recycle it for you. :D
 
Larry,
Affordable price tag please. Have been looking for a damascus folder for 8 months, think I found it. I will take your first working model.

Man that is one gorgeous knife!! How do you make the curves on the inside of the bolsters match the curves of the scales so well? I gotta learn that!
 
Here's some additional shots over in the Exchange.
Looks like it's found a home already, I'm waiting for money arrangements to be made.

I sure apprecitate all the feedback. Being relatively new to knifemaking I'm still not sure which direction I want to go.
Mr. Bradshaw is trying to make a forger out of me,
and truthfully I'm much fonder of traditional patterns and fine bowies, I just don't have the talent for it yet.
Today D/A's tomorrow D/A OTF's........LarryD
 
That is one drop-dead gorgeous knife! It is just beautiful.

Often, I don't care much to see the bolster and blade of the same damascus. Guess that's because I never saw this damascus before. It somehow shows the separation better than any other damascus I've seen. WOW!
