BONE HANDLE POCKET KNIFE
DAMASCUS BLADE
UP FOR AUCTION IS THIS FINE QUALITY, HANDMADE FOLDING POCKET KNIFE. THE BLADE IS GENUINE DAMASCUS WITH ALL THE TYPICAL MARKINGS AND SWIRLS - MADE WITH OVER 150 LAYERS OF STEEL. OVERALL LENGTH OF THIS KNIFE IS 7" (BLADE MEASURES 3".) THE SMOOTH BONE HANDLES ARE HIGHLY POLISHED AND THIS KNIFE IS IDEAL FOR SCRIMSHAWING. I BOUGHT A FAIRLY LARGE LOT OF THESE KNIVES FROM A WHOLESALER AND HAD ORIGINALLY INTENDED TO CARVE/SCRIMSHAW THEM MYSELF, BUT THERE IS NOT ENOUGH "UMPF" IN ME TO DO THE WORK, SO I AM SELLING THEM. I WAS A PROFESSIONAL SCRIMSHAW ARTIST FOR OVER 20 YEARS. IF YOU ARE A SCRIMSHANDER YOU, I PROMISE YOU, YOU WILL BE VERY VERY HAPPY WITH THE QUALITY OF THIS KNIFE. THE SMOOTH BONE HANDLE IS PERFECTLY SMOOTH AND READY FOR SCRIMSHAWING OR CARVING. NOTE: THERE IS A VERY SMALL "CHECK" CRACK ON THE SIDE OF ONE OF THE BONE HANDLES. THIS IS NORMAL AND WILL NOT EFFECT THE CARVABILITY OR VALUE OF THIS KNIFE. I TRIED TO GET A PICTURE OF THE "CHECK" BUT IT DOESN'T SHOW UP. THIS IS A COLLECTORS PIECE AND WILL BE TREASURED. I DO NOT KNOW THE ORIGIN OF THIS KNIFE, BUT REST ASSURED THIS BEAUTIFUL KNIFE IS A-1 QUALITY. LEATHER BELT SHEATH IS INCLUDED.
GOOD LUCK BIDDING.
