Damascum bushcrafter...

[lannyman8]

A friend of mine asked if i could do him a knife for his Mrs, he was not specific at all appart from, he wanted a bushcraft style blade with damascum steel, somthing a bit special and girley but not toooo girley...

specs:-

steel - 15N20 and 1084 raindrop (from Tom at wood & knife supplies)

handle - stabalised spalted birch in green, brass liner, black corrian, brass liner, birch burrl, another brass liner and more green spalted birch.

brass lanyard tube, black and brass mosaic pins and 4mm brass pins for the burrl. green liners on the main steel portion...

the blade is 105mm long the handle is 115mm long

this is my best blade yet, its just in need of a bit more polish and re-etch the blade when my chemicals get here...any comments welcome as normal.















hope you like it gents and ladies...

regards.
