Here is my latest finished knife a Fancy Hunter 1084/15n20/1095 damascus blade with a 4 inch cutting edge, damascus guard and spacer with nickel silver accents, ironwood handle, domed pins, nickel silver liners and a twist damascus frame. I've been making kitchen knives the last couple years this is so different a lot of pieces that need to fit together and so many opportunities for disaster as my mentor would put it, but I really enjoined it and I'm happy with the outcome. Also another reason I made this is because I had a Bowie knife featured in the May issue of Blade magazine I don't think I can show a photo of that here, it was really nice to have my work acknowledged.

Thanks for looking any comments welcome

Gilbert
