spsurfer 891 Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 Hello, here a nearly finished knife I made for a hunter for an africa safari. The knife had to be exclusive and dark and materials related to Africa. So here a 11cm blade from Wirtz / Bahls Damascus (1.2842, 1.3505 and 75Ni8 in about 240 layers) 12cm handle from bronze, cape buffalo and ebony. The handle will have a bronze pin wich is still missing and an escutcheon engraved with the hunters initials. Regards Nicolas 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
