    My sentiments exactly!
    Due to the price of primers, warning shots will no longer be given!

    I've always wanted a knife with Damascus steel, each blade looks unique. Great knives

    I was given a Shun 7" Chef's Knife chrome over Damascus it was abused & had 2 chunks missing. I didn't care for the hammered finish but after grinding out the chips I found out how sharp a Damascus knife can be. I favored old carbon steel and good German SS knives & have sharped well over 1,000 knives. I rehab old knives & give them to people who appreciate & are in need of good cutlery. I've never seen a knife as sharp as that Damascus blade. My knives are normally razor hair shaving sharp, this was scalpel or better, scary sharp.

    No i don´t forge the damascus,
    i buy it in billets made either by Damasteel for stainless damascus or a blacksmith that lives close by for carbon damascus.

    here is a link to the smith that makes the carbon damascus billets for me

    Yes, the metal work, wood work & leather work, Very Nice!
    Can you post a picture of the back of a sheath? It appears the belt loop swivels.

    You are a master knifemaker. Your knives' designs are very utilitarian, and I bet you could make a good living producing them -- if you aren't doing so already. Very nice.

    I supply wood scales to a number of knife makers. Try to get samples that are unique but 'hairy oak' is very popular



    I have also supplied presentation gift boxes.

    "Hairy Oak" comes from where?

    It's an Australian bush timber. Google 'dead finish' which is another rare bush timber
