Comments: This is a lovely Clip-point made by knife-making legend and long time Guild Member Billy Mace Imel. Although deceptively simple, this little beauty is a clinic in precision knife making.
As most serious collectors know, the satin finish is really the Waterloo of many knife makers, because unlike a mirror finish, the satin version shows every conceivable flaw or dip in the surface finish of a knife. Here you see the reference standard satin finishing of a real master!
A beautifully made gem from a master's work bench.
