Wade Hougham 1 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Richard, This sure isn't one of your "Roughies". Great looking blade pattern. Wade Link to post Share on other sites
WPeterson 0 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Very nice work there. I love the dynamic pattern in the damascus and it seems to flow as an extension of the handle. I'm sure it will find a very happy owner. Link to post Share on other sites

Richard van Dijk 240 Posted April 25, 2009 Author Share Posted April 25, 2009 (edited) Beau, yes the silver bolster is hollow it is about 3mm thick, I modelled it in wax and then it was cast in silver. Thanks for all your great comments guys. Richard Edited April 25, 2009 by Richard van Dijk Link to post Share on other sites
