Pieter-Paul Derks 148 Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) I have for sale this knife forged from a rasp Inspired by the Neo-Tribal movement of knifemaking (especially the works of Tai Goo). The handle is made from polished impala bone and the ferrule was fabricated from copper. To keep within the rough and “tribal” theme, the file teeth and some of the forging marks are left in, the ferule and blade are also antiqued and etched. A double temper line can be seen in front of the ferrule. This knife is quite thin and very sharp, and will make an excellent slicer for kitchen work and delicate tasks. Asking price is 125 Euro+shipping. A sheath can be made on request. Contact via PM, or E-Mail: mefecit@hotmail.com Thanks for looking. -Pieter-Paul Derks- Edited September 12, 2017 by pieter-pauld Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Geoff Keyes 389 Posted September 12, 2017 It has a Belduque feel to it. Very nice, I love the copper. Geoff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Don Abbott 70 Posted September 12, 2017 I like the minimal approach on the file teeth... adds an artistic flair. Very Goo-ish indeed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pieter-Paul Derks 148 Posted September 13, 2017 Thanks for the compliments everyone. I am quite pleased with the texture and feel of this one myself. I Just wish I had more of this impala bone, it is actually the piece that grows inside the horn, and it was very dense and solid throughout. Discoverd it by accident when using the horn for another project. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pieter-Paul Derks 148 Posted December 5, 2017 Update, I finally decided on what kind of sheath I wanted to give this knife. I carved an open ''display'' sheath from beech wood and added a leather retainer/belt loop. I knife carved some surfaces to complement the textures on the knife. The new price including sheath is now 150 euro. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
