That is a work of art. There is a lot going on there with that knife- the pattern on the bolsters,red spacers,brass screws,the horn and the damascus all come together nicely.

That's not like your usual stuff, don't get me wrong, I like your work.
But you really out did yourself this time.
The best I've seen yet, exceptional

not bad at all
Results are directly driven, by the work that is done.

I AM NOT TAKING THE PISS ,YOU HAVE MADE A STUNNING KNIFE. PLEASE USE THE CORRECT SIZE OF SCREW DRIVER ON ASSEMBLING THE SCALES, HORN IS A REAL SWINE TO CUT FIT CORRECTLY STILL A LOVLEY JOB.PS DID YOU BUY THE SCALES READY MADE OR LIKE ME CUT THEM TO SIZE SOFTEN IN PEROXIDE FOR A WEEK TO CLEAN, THEN CUT FLATTEN THE HORN UNDER A HEAVY WEIGHT EVEN THEN IT STILL TRIES TO CURL WHEN DRY. ALL MY RAMS HORN IS FROM SHEEP WHO DID NOT MAKE IT THROUGH A HARSH WINTER ON THE PENNINE MOORS IN LANCASHIRE ENGLAND AFTER THE FOX AND CROWS HAVE HAD THERE SHARE
