Comments:
Here is another knife from German knife maker Dietmar Kressler that can only be described as perfection in steel. Of course Dietmar is best known to collectors as the top maker of integral knives in the world today, and this full size integral Classic Loveless style Sub-hilt Fighter does not disappoint on that account.
Flawlessly machined from a single piece of Swedish RWL-34 steel, the frame and the blade have a gorgeous hand-rubbed satin finish. The Presentation Grade Water Buffalo scales are perfectly matched, and are also well contoured for comfort, so the knife sits nicely in the hand.
Engraved by Master Jon Robyn in a very tasteful scroll the scales are set off by solid gold pins. This is an absolutely stunning piece from Dietmar, and one of the very finest engraved Loveless style sub-hilts we've ever seen!
