steller´s fighter

This knife is built around an exceptional handle material: fossilized bone from the Steller's sea cow. These marine mammals once lived in the Bering Sea region and were driven to extinction in the 18th century. I carved organic lines into the handle, allowing them to flow naturally into the guard and the recessed decorative nut at the pommel. The hand-forged blade retains its forged surface along the spine and is selectively hardened. The temper line forms a pattern reminiscent of softly drifting clouds. The knife is complemented by a sheath sewn from semi-tanned cowhide, embossed with a subtle floral motif.

Length overal 29,5 cm,  length of the blade 15 cm.  Price €2000
