Description: Ron Best creates a dramatic knife -- and over the past 2 years, Ron has increasingly focused on making integral knives. This technique shows tremendous control -- the steel parts, from blade to guard and handle are all made from one piece of steel. The result is an exceptionally sturdy, dramatic knife.
The hollow ground blade shows off perfect curves with elegant, crisp grind lines. The integral design results in an exceptional heft and a great feel in the hand. The blade has been meticulously hand satin finished. The integral 440C handle has been sculpted and meticulously inlaid with pre-ban fossil mammoth ivory. The X shaped tang is one of the most impressive techniques that I have seen on any knife. The steel throughout the handle has been mirror polished. Exceptional fit and finish throughout on a very captivating, elegant knife.
