Description: Mastersmith Steve Dunn is known nearly as well as an engraver as he is a bladesmith … and that says a lot. Steve, who teaches classes in engraving at the GRS school, has taught more knifemakers the intricate skills of engraving than anyone I know.
The blade is a complex waterfall pattern damascus. It is easily opened using the right handed thumb nick. It has nice action and a firm half stop.
Premium sambar stag handle scales are set on 416 stainless steel liners. Showing his devotion to high precision workmanship and durability, Steve milled the liners for integral bolsters, rather than using separate pieces. Though this technique takes significantly more time, it results in much stronger, elegant construction. The bolsters are hand engraved in Western scroll style.
Exceptional fit and finish throughout.
