My knives, Markin Andrei.

[Andrei]

Thanks

Hey.
A couple of my standard knives again .
M390 in fine heat treatment, stainless damascus and acacia burl. Both knives have convex blade geometry, the knives are thin and light for a crazy cut

 

[Andrei]

Another interesting knife that I could not help but show you here .
Blade - stainless damascus sanmai, with a central layer of evil steel М398 275/57 / the thickness of the spine at the handle is 3.8mm. in the middle 2.2mm. one centimeter from the tip 0.7mm.
The handle is African Blakwood and Mokume in brass and titanium, the pin is also made of titanium and brass.

 

[Andrei]

It seems to me that knives turn out better when I am not burdened with certain frames and the wishes of the customer .

 

[Geigs]

Wow, that's quite the pair. Beautiful knives.

 

[Dhoff]

Lesson learned. When I order one from you, I'll just tell you size and dark wood handle

Those are gorgeous!

Blades 200/40 / 2.5mm. S-grind
130/30 / 2.5mm. Convex

I love these and the history behind them. Could you quote an approximate price for a pair of these?

 

[Andrei]

Greetings to all!
I want to share with you another interesting project.
Blades 370 and 470mm. made of steel ШХ-15 (52100) 60-61HRC
Handles in stainless damascus and stabilized walnut burl.
The box and saya are also made of solid walnut. The box is originally locked with two long pegs.

 

[Andrei]

This knife is not like the rest of my models, because the customer said "make a knife with your own handle and 50 / 200mm blade." That is, I had almost no bounding boxes. This is what it all led to .

 

[Andrei]

A little sujihiki.
Blade - 240 / 40mm. Stainless steel sanmai К390 64HRC.
Handle - African blackwood and Tasmanian blackwood. Cutting edge thickness 0.1mm. The knife is sharpened up to 10000 grit.

I have no clue what took me so long to go through this thread. Starstruck from the first picture. 2022 Bucket List.

How long is your wait list? Once I’m ready to get on it, I’ll definitely PM.

 

[Andrei]

Thank you, I'm glad you like my knives.
At the moment, the waiting time is 7-8 months.

I think this is a good idea .

Oak root + zirconium, this is the second knife from the top in the first photo

 

[Dhoff]

is the one with the spots the oak root?

fairly certain that is the elm burl

@Andrei how much would one of these go for?

 

[inferno]

Oak root + zirconium, this is the second knife from the top in the first photo

i see i see.

the spots reminded me of alder root and salix caprea/goat willow/great sallow root. so i assumed that one was the root.

Prices are different, due to the materials and the complexity of working with some of them. The price ranges from $ 340-390

 

[Migraine]

Those prices a lot less than I expected.

they are all beautiful but the elm burl really hits a soft spot
