This custom Damascus Chef knife is made by me, Mark Buzzell (MAB), right here in Maine. This great looking knife is 12-1/2″ inches overall with a 7-1/2″ inch blade by just over 3/16 inch thick and 1-7/8″ inch wide with a 7-1/2″ inch cutting edge 200 plus fold Feather pattern Damascus steel blade. The 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 quenched hardened and tempered to Rockwell 58, then acid etched to help bring out the Damascus pattern, and given one final polish. The handle on this one is made from Red stag and mammoth tooth spacer and pommel cap, The mammoth tooth is from the perma frost region of Siberia Russia and will date from 15,000 to 20,000 thousand years old and a custom Brass pin through the handle to keep things tight for life. Your handle will come alive outside in the sun with tons of colors, so you can see I put a lot of time just in the fit and finish on this one to make it a very collectible piece, or a good working custom chef knife, 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 and DVD telling more about the knife, when it’s was made time spent and so on. This 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.
