Nice matching of blade and handle Keith:thumbsup:
 
Etching really brings out the beautiful damascus...what's the knife?
 
Jantz Damascus without bolster. Stepan has the Bolster model liked the grind better than a shun. Wanted to try recessing the front of scales for pinch grip.

33 layers of 410 over a core of VG-10. Thought the spalting kind of goes with the Damascus. Etching made it pop.
 
I just sold this blade to a student for 85.00 with a saya 210mm. He is in his final semester. A fast learner with freehand.
 
I missed this thread. Nice work keith! I like the taper at the front of the handle good idea.
 
I got the idea looking at Randy Haas bolsterless handles. It is good for pinch grip.
