That was what caught my eye as well when I started to look past the overall excellence of the knife. Von Gruff http://www.vongruffknives.com/ The ability to do comes with doing.

Brian Dougherty 1,395 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I'll tell you what I think makes this one special: I first noticed the horse head etched in, and thought "That is slick." Then I started reading comments about the anvil guard, and hammer pommel, and thought "Wait, I didn't notice those!" I had to go back and take a second look. To me, that means your thematic elements are nicely balanced -Brian Link to post Share on other sites
