That's a beauty Midnight.

 

Plan to make a similar one myself sometime.

Thanks griff , to much work for me !!

Bargain to be had there, i bet you don't get much per hour for making that one! Seems to be the problem with all hand made stuff hard to make a living at it, folk just don't want to pay the extra.....get it on the internet from China for less than the cost of materials to make the same thing, dosn't give much margin for labor cost!

Let me know if you have any Damascus blanks going spare, would be interested. Even a rough unshaped one would be fine, happy to shape up & temper etc myself.

Cheers
