I think it's time for this 2012 thread in see the light of day, which had been a promise made to many of the Cutom Knives fans, so here it is again now, to close the end of 2018.
A number of friends who had not seen it asked that I take one of my Warenskis (the Main Gauche) to the Solvang Show in it's new Huey case. Afterward, I had promised to post the most recent images of it, only recently taken for inclusion in David Darom's publication(s).
Since the dagger has been the subject, over time, of many imaging sessions and several magazine/publication presentations, I decided to cobble some together to give a better, more complete viewing of it. All but the first image have been seen before, including here, so it's not like much new ground is being broken, but had to keep my promise to several friends to do this.
It's always impossible to capture the true brilliance of the gems ( about 700 diamonds and 40+ rubies), but the most recent image has really captured the rubies well.
A 1993 AKI presention piece. The Solvang viewing is it's last public appearance and this is it's last post. Thanks to Eric Eggly and David Darom for the arrangement of the first image here posted. Hope you like the images.
