The WOW factor of this knife is beyond that of any knife I have ever examined personally.
The pattern of the damascus on the maker's mark side of the blade angles backward from the spine toward both edges. Turn the knife over, and the damascus pattern angles forward from the spine toward both edges. This is the work of a consummate master whose goal obviously was to demonstrate the level of his skill. The accomplishment is simply stunning.
This phenomenal blade is 9" long, constructed from multi-bar twist L6/01 damascus. The handle was originally wood and was later re-handled in oosic.
Damascus and blued steel fittings, blued steel hilt.
Replacement value of this knife has been estimated at upwards of $2,500, but it does show some light handling wear (i.e. very light scuffing of the bluing on the hilt--could easily be erased with a good cold bluing product like Brownell's Oxpho-Blue).
