I just got this Todd Fischer Archangel today directly from Todd. There is a long story behind this that starts with when I got into knife collecting. Let's just say this and the Frank Fischer Battle I just got last week ends my grail journey. Hard to want to get another knife after these.

1st Todd Fischer 4.0 with custom hand forged damascus by Todd.
Hidden hardware
Silver LSCF
Platinum/silver eggshell
custom everything...

Also, got back the Gold Battle from Frank after a quick mod I wanted. I'm blown away. Frank & Todd are the absolute best. The fit and finish is perfect, the action is amazing.
I really wanted a contrasting pair in silver and gold. I couldn't be happier with these!

Wow!
I love that gold color on the Damascus! Never seen it before. Is it gold plated, or is it some type of Damascus I'm not aware of? Either way, it's stunning!

It's not plating, Frank and Todd made the Damascus then Frank used the heat tempering cycle to heat ano it to
That color. These guys are on another level. Thanks for the kind words bro
 
Those are gorgeous knives. I can see why you are so pleased with them.
Damascus is also a necessary part of that beauty. Good for you.
 
Do you know approximate hardness of the gold blade? I'm wondering if that would affect its ability to hold an edge. Either way, you've got a couple of sweet knives there!

I just talked to Frank and he said it's 61 hrc.
 
Beautiful and stunning!! Those are the closest definition to "grail" I think I have seen since I've been on bladeforums. Congratulations to you sir!
