Description: Anders creates knives with an excellent fusion between cultures. He has combined the techniques and styles of his native Sweden with those learned from Scott Slobodian during his apprenticeship.
The premium snakewood handle is formed from a solid piece of wood and has a dramatic mix of light brown tones with darker "snakeskin stripes". The textured copper pin and bolster both bring out warm tones in the snakewood. The upswept blade is created from Jim Ferguson's Damascus and has a nice twist pattern. Excellent fit and finish throughout.
