Description: This is a dramatic collaborative effort between bladesmiths Fred Ott and Jerry McClure.
The blade was forged to shape by Jerry. He began by forging a Wolf Eye pattern damascus combining O1, 52100 and 1085 carbon steels along with pure nickel. This damascus was then forge welded to 1084M carbon steel for a keen, long lasting edge.
The handle was created by Fred Ott with take-down construction. Handles that can be disassembled show an incredible degree of accuracy since gaps cannot be filled. The handle is formed from African wild olive wood. The butt cap is formed from dovetail-fit ebony. Following techniques of Japanese construction, a central pin completes the handle.
The knife is accompanied by a curly walnut presentation box by Fred Ott.
Exceptional work throughout!
