This custon bird trout knife is made by me, Mark Buzzell (MAB), right here in Maine. This great looking custom knife is 6-5/8 inches overall with a 3 inch by 1/8 inch thick 200 plus fold fire storm patern damascus steel blade. Knife blade is marked with my MAB logo as the maker of this fine knife. This knife was made from a bar stock damascus billet. The knife billets are shaped, ground, polished, oil quenced hardened and tempered to rockwell 57 to 58, then acid etched to help bring out the damascus pattern, then gun blued and given one final polish. The handle on this one is made from amber dyed stag bone with some great colors. The knife comes alive outside in the sun… The knife bolsters and spacers were made from solid brass bar stock and shaped to the handle. I also used three custom pins in the handle to add to the bone color. I also had filed the top of the blade with my “Sharp Thorn” pattern and the top of the handle in my “vine thorn” pattern. All done by hand with a chain saw file and a small triangle file. I do not use a dremel tool like some knife builders, and then call it file work. So you can see I put a lot of time just in the file work along with the fit and finish on this custom knife to make it a very collectable piece, or a good working knife. Your custom knife will come with the custom brown leather belt sheath made by Carl Thomas. Visit him at. http://www.carlthomasknifesheaths.com/ Your custom knife will also come with a black zip up knife case for storing your custom knife when it’s not in use. All my custom knives come with a hand signed COA telling more about the knife, when it was made, time spent, and so on. The one of a kind should last a good many lifetimes and would make a great gift for the knife collector that thought they had everything. $6.00 shipping by priority mail with delivery conformation and insurance.
