"W" Pattern Utility with Mammoth Tooth scales

[Mike Turner]

Hi all thought this one is worthy of being posted here as well,

Just got this one all finished up and will be heading to it's new home. This is a "W" Pattern Utility, it has Mammoth Tooth scales that have stainless steel liners. Front and rear bolsters are stainless steel as well are the pins. The beautiful sheath was made by Paul Long.

This was a custom order and the customer picked the materials only input I had was the damascus pattern. Blade was forged to shape and is 4" long from the tip to the plunge cut and is 8 1/4" overall the blade is 1" wide and 1/8" thick. Hope you like it.

This is the knife I started in this thread, Weekend at Dave Lisch's Warning Photo Heavy

I want to thank Dave for the time in his shop and also want to thank those that gave me great tips on working with the Mammoth Tooth.

The scales definitely compliment the pattern. The sheath from Mr. Long brings it all together.

What grit was used on the bolsters? The satin finish blends in with the scales, and draws attention to the mammoth pattern.

I'm not one for post whoring "nice job" on the forums, but I had to give you props on the knife pr0n.

Thanks Deano, I finished the bolsters to 600 grit, I actually went to 800 but thought it looked to polished and was competing against the star the Mammoth tooth so I went back to 600.
