Wife's B-Day Gift.....

[Dawkind]

I asked Audra Draper, ABS Mastersmith, if she would make me something special for Diana's 50th birthday that is tomorrow.....this is what I got in the mail.

Diana's favorite color is blue so Audra used some lapis lazulli stones that her dad gave her years ago. We both enjoy the leaves that Audra makes and since Diana has another 'neck knife' that I gave her many years ago, I thought it was time for another.

Audra's exceptional Damascus, German-silver pierced sheath and her ornate and exceptional artistry make for a stunning piece for my wife, IMHO.....I am biased though.

Superbly ground Kris dagger and it's sharp, too!

That is truly a work of art. I think your wife will be very happy to have it.

Congrats!

A very thoughtful and elegant gift for a knife lover, from a knife lover. Exceptional piece.

Anyone know if Audra, has ever signed on these forums? If not, someone tell her we need her to come for a visit. (Enjoy this big grumpy/happy family.)

Great knife! I like the style of this very much. First class!

Well, Audra's touch as an artist and Mastersmith is immediately
recognizable in this beautiful piece....

All the best.
