Comments: A classic Slender Fixed Blade by talented emerging artist Elizabeth Loerchner. New to the knife making business in the last several years, Elizabeth has already attracted the attention of knowledgeable collectors and dealers around the world who are looking for exceptional young knife making talent.

She is also a recent award winner having been among three knife makers chosen at the 2012 Blade Show as the first winners of the Jerry Fisk Cutlery Challenge. The Cutlery Challenge is a program sponsored the Custom Knife Collectors Association (CKCA) in partnership with Jerry Fisk and is designed to encourage talented new knife makers to reach even greater heights of craftsmanship and originality.

As you might imagine this knife possess classic lines as well as the outstanding finish you might expect from the Loerchner pedigree. And like her father, Elizabeth uses no power tools, which means that all of these fantastic swirls and curves are done completely by hand with a large assortment of file and ultra-fine sand paper.

Current delivery times are already in the neighborhood of five years.

A truly superb knife from an exceptionally talented new maker.
