Im just an apprentice but I like experimenting.  This knife is a complete experiment I started by getting some copper mesh and wanted to see what it would look like cast in epoxy.  When I was done, i thought it looked a little garish 

I then wanted to see what a 60 layer billet sandwiched between two higher layer billets would look like and then pinched the middle.

so I took the copper scale, added some black to break it up, a mosaic scorpion pin, and the venom knife was born.

I used my wifes pottery kiln for heat treat and was really pleased with the results.

This became my 6th complete knife and sold the fastest of all of my work:
