Hello All,
Here I have a fairly unique knife made from a Wolfram Special + low carbon steel san-mai with a nickel layer in between. The handle is a lovely combination of roasted birdseye maple and bloodwood which has been oil finished, buffed and waxed. The wood, the nickel, and the cladding all exhibit good activity and coupled with the very thin edge geometry, this should be an aesthetically and functionally striking knife all around.
Thanks for looking!
