Hello All.
OK, it's my birthday in February. And what I would REALLY like is a damascus blade knife.
Wondered if some of you clever and talented knife makers out there could give me a price on a 3 or 31/2 or 4 inch Damascus bladed full-tang knife with bone/horn scales (but probably wood as well, due to price). I'm not really a fan of the 'bushcraft' blade style - I prefer a blade with a straight top edge and an upswept edge, or even a traditional 'bowie'/hunters style blade. Does that make sense?
If the price is right then I have been told I can have one for my birthday! Just thought it would be a good idea to see how much it would be (haven't been given a price - that was the first thing I asked - just told 'if it's right') and how long it would take to do.
Just want to get some ideas, so this isn't a definite commission and I realise prices maybe approximates. If we go ahead with it then we'll sort out specifics.
Cheers All.
