Well, why NOT love something you use every day? Friends up North generously send us deer bones found in situ on their property (no hunting was done to get these). We cut the bone into the right size and shape for the blade, and form a brass bolster and a gemstone in a bezel setting for the pommel.
This grouping (L-R) features sugar smoked black opal from Australia, a lapis from the peaks of Afghanistan, a rose-cut rutilated quartz, and an African malachite.
We get the Damascus knife blanks already made up. (Damascus is an ancient process of layering high carbon steel with carbon steel- it makes an incredible blade). These knives can cut a tomato so thin and clean- they are a pleasure to work with.
Not for sale- unless you can send us some more bones?
Then we can talk.
