These beautiful knives are made from 440 C, a high carbon stainless steel. I heat treated the steel, including the cryogenic aging, to bring out the best qualities this amazing steel has to offer.
The blades have been hand polished to a mirror finish providing the best service for their intended use.
Both the bolster and the finals for each knife are made from copper that is pinned through the tang. They are then mirror polished causing the pins to be undetectable.
The scales are made from Bocote. A central American tree specie known for it's striking grain pattern. The scales are book matched to the bolsters and finals with compound angles designed to show no seams yet be strong and durable.
The balance of both knives allows for an excellent feel in the hand. this makes using them all the more pleasing.
My client wanted both knives to fit in a single sheath. I designed and hand stitched this double sheath to be both durable yet light to wear.
From my client: Good evening Mark, the knives came today. You nailed it. They’re nicer than I imagined they would be. I could not be happier with how they came out. Absolutely beautiful! They feel great in hand, the size and weight is perfect. I love the case too.
Thank you.
