jmh33 It's a three blade I*XL Wostenholm "Gunboat" Canoe with red jigged bone handles. Looking through LVG4, I found that a Gunboat Canoe was also considered an Equal End Cattle knife - who'd a thunk it.

I love Davis’ work. The Damascus on that one looks great.

He really does. Love how thin behind the edge it is and how much sharpening life he’s built in with the sharpening choil.
65 hrc Magnacut as well!

Not to at all undersell the finishing work and the absolutely amazing walk and talk he’s done on this either. Genuinely a useful work or art!

This one when it arrives just picked it up last night here on the forum.

Merry Xmas

Very cool, Ed! Mine has similar / identical canoe frame but main blade and two smaller secondary blades are all drop points.

Beautiful knife, Charr, and the MagnaCut at 65 is even more icing on the cake. You could carry that one in any situation and not be under-knifed.

I’m biased but I do think he is one of the best makers in the traditional knife making game.

It certainly is. And I cannot understate how perfectly ground this blade is. Best I can measure, the thickness behind the edge is .005” from .120” stock. Genuinely hard to get a good measurement because of how thin it is, but it keeps that measurement all the way from tip to heel!

I wanted something that was a good working profile and I couldn’t have asked for a better blade!

I genuinely believe you are right. I fell in love with his work back when he used to sell pieces here. When I decided to have a knife made that could hopefully last as something to pass on to my kids (hopefully) way down the line, I couldn’t think of anyone better. I know it gets tough with the big dogs of traditional making, but he’s punching up there for sure.

And another photo because why not
