Title: My 400th and 401st knives
Post by: Sam Harper on November 09, 2024, 07:45:20 PM

I figured since these were my 400th and 401st knives, I'd splurge and send them off to a professional engraver to jazz them up. I sent them to Alice Carter and just got them back yesterday. I still haven't sharpened them.

This last picture is what one of the knives looked like before the engraving. It was just floating out there in space.

Beautiful work! The engraving makes them pop. What is the handle material?

Thanks. The handles are fossilized mammoth tooth.

I thought so. I really like them, especially the drop point.

Absolutely beautiful! Very nicely done! Kinda makes me feel bad that I never kept a count on how many I’ve made…I’ll never know that number to be able to make it special.
