Mat Maresch Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Hello friends of the blade. It has been a long time since I shown anything in these forums, but it is time to show a bit more presence here I thought... So let me start with a customers order for a "large barbecue knife": Blade forged from high carbon steel and 15N20 - 6 2/8 inch, 1/8 inch thick Handle scales desert ironwood, with peened bronze pins and sinew, 5 inch long Sheath is still in the makings, will be a simple leather sheath. What do you think? Greetings! Mat www.mareschmesser.de Knifemaker, Germany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDF Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 What do you think? ...i think that this knike is very good. I like the special damascus pattern and the ergonomic handle. schöne Messer CIAO FROM ITALY Marco Di Francesco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adlai Stein Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 That is a beautiful knife Matt. Looks like it should be a good working knife. However I would worry a bit about the sinew not cleaning up from the grease and dirt of the BBQ. Adlai Klatu Baratta Necktie!

David D. Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I LOVE it!!! rustic but refined, deep rich redish desert ironwood. and the wrapped around cord is such a cool idea!!! seriously awesome work!

Mat Maresch Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 Glad you like it, guys. I made the sheath yesterday and will have a few pics up tonight. Adlai, I have been worrying about grease and fat too. So I sealed the sinew off with glue. Still, the owner will have to get accustomed to cleaning it thoroughly, thats for sure. Be back on you guys later, Mat www.mareschmesser.de Knifemaker, Germany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
