His work is extremely well thought through, with dramatic shapes and detailed Damascus. The long clip point blade was forged to shape from Ricardo's wolves tooth pattern Damascus. The steel has tremendous detail and a high layer count. The stainless steel oval guard, ferrule and distal tapered blade result in an optimal balance in the hand. The Sambar stag handle has a sculpted end cap beautifully detailed and accenting this classic bowie. As you would expect, the fit and finish is excellent.
