Dave Stephens Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 That is very nice. I love the damascus guard. What kind of steel is in the damascus? Very well done! --Dave -----------------------------------------------"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly." -- Theodore Roosevelthttp://stephensforge.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Colwell Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 that is great! It looks like the child of a bowie and a yatagan. Original, clean, neat pattern welding. I would like to know the steels, also. Kevin please visit my website http://www.professorsforge.com/ “Years ago I recognized my kinship with all living things, and I made up my mind that I was not one bit better than the meanest on the earth. I said then and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it; while there is a criminal element, I am of it; while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.” E. V.

charred Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 that whole knife is great but the handle and guard combo are ridiculously out of this world. I have never heard of that wood before but it looks great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
