    Dude, that's stunning! The pattern is gorgeous, the handle is stunning, and the contrasting pin colors was the icing on the cake. Bravo, man.

    So satisfying to see scales with so many pins just sliiiiide into place. Beautiful piece!

  • @lewissammons
    @lewissammons Před 3 lety +39

    Love this design! The leather tassel on the end is a clever addition but this knife of yours is just begging for a fine leather sheath to go along with it. Any plans for it? Perhaps make it appear similar to a feather to match that amazing Damascus pattern!
    Thanks once again for sharing your incredible talent!

  • @vedranlatin1386
    @vedranlatin1386 Před 3 lety +4

    Beautiful pattern, especially on the left face with the menacing "eye" on the spine. I think you should try making one with clear epoxy handle. Maybe leave in thin spacer materials you normally use and all the cross pieces but use table top epoxy instead of wood.

    Beautiful as always……you have inspired me….I am starting to gather some tools so I can try my hand at knife making. I have a lot of hand tools, and I am used to working with my hands, I make a living working with Air conditioning and Refrigeration……my biggest challenge will be grinding the bevels ……I’m not ready to purchase/ build a 2x72 yet, so I’m looking into other alternatives. Of course my first knife will be stock removal, and from there who knows! Thank you for the videos and the inspiration, keep up,the good work sir!!
