Just finished this little hunter/utility knife. It has genuine black lip mother of pearl inlays. The pearl is REALLY hard to capture in a photo. I can't begin to capture everything that's going on in it as you move it around.

I plan on bringing this with me to Blade, if I still have it then.

Specs:
Hand forged from 1075 steel, clay quenched and etched
3 3/8" blade, 7 1/2" overall, .180" thick at the ricasso w/ full distal taper
Rounded spine and ricasso edge
Fluted and line cut damascus collar
African blackwood handle
Black lip pearl inlays

Every little detail and nuance in your knives are always a pleasure to see John.
 
Oh, wow!
Man, that's beautiful. Awesome attention to detail, and unique.
I'm a newbie knife maker. So new, I haven't even finished my first knife yet.
You have talent, sir. I can only hope to produce such a nice piece someday.
