Description: The light sheep horn spacer and deep black buffalo horn in the handle have excellent contrast. The stainless steel guard and butt cap creates a perfect balance in the hand. The spine is lightly fileworked, creating a perfect thumb rest. By mirror polishing the flats of the blade and satin finishing the grinds, Bob creates a knife with grind lines that are very dramatic. Engraving by Kenneth Warren on the butt and bolster create a deep sense of elegance. The blade has been heat treated to 57Rc for optimal edge retention. Comes with certificate from the maker.
