A small utility knife forged from OW1(1.2516, 120WV4) round bar, with Ibex(capricorn) horn slabs, copper pinned and an overall length of 185 mm.

This steel is about 100 years in use and it is such a great stuff to make excellent blades.Forges and welds very easy(actually a waste in a damascus billet)grinds and finishes also with very less effort....very good edge holding and easy to sharpen.....http://www.metalravne.com/steelselector/steels/OW1.html....simply a joy to work with.

I'm just blown away with the quality of workmanship I've seen since joining here.

Thats a wicked nice blade.

Beautiful little knife! I really like the shaping of your scales! Nice flow over the whole knife. Great job!

Beautiful!  I appreciate your elegantly simple style!  The ibex horn is very interesting to look upon!  Each piece that you've posted pictures of has impressed me!  Fantastic work!

Thanks for nice comments, Gentlemen!

I appreciate them a lot.

cheers
