This knife is a work I did in 2009.
The blade was forged in W1 steel, Tempered with traditional Japanese method. the handle was carved from deer antler.
Hope you like, Cristian.

Very nice, Cristian. I love the form and rustic nature of the piece.

I hope this translates well..

A beautiful piece. Nice work and thanks for sharing. I do love a nice knife. I use Deer antler for the handles on mine also. My carving is a little different to. But I really like the Dragon.

Thanks friends !! This carving preferred to work rustical to generate some contrast in the finished piece.
The color was given with black tea, and polished only for the lights.
