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 stabilized Pine Cone scales are the first of this material we've ever seen, and they are perfectly contoured for comfort, so the knife sits naturally in the hand. And believe it or not these gorgeous scales are fully encased in a synthetic resin which is nearly indestructible!
This is an absolutely stunning piece from Dietmar!
