Title: Damascus/deer leg bone
Post by: PEARL DRUMS on December 12, 2014, 10:36:18 am: Just got this Damascus knife from my good buddy Joe Dempler. The handle is deer leg bone. Its quite sharp and about 10" long o/a. Ive never seen this style of steel bladed knife before. I love it!

Post by: PEARL DRUMS on December 12, 2014, 07:34:34 pm: It surely looks knapped. Up close it has the tiny ridges present in stone. And, it slices through paper easy enough. I didn't ask Joe if he made the blade or bought it, my money says he made it somehow. Its very symmetrically hammered whoever did it.
