Comments: If you are looking for a Masterpiece to be the center of your collection this Joe Kious-Ron Skaggs. folding dagger could be the knife for you. J
This extraordinary knife has a solid gold frame and is only one of two Gold Frame Kious knives we have ever seen in this large size.
The knife is masterfully engraved by Ron Skaggs and includes a series of traditional Japanese decorative motifs.
Ron's wonderful carving and skillful use of, silver, copper and solid gold help complete this top-of-the-line Joe Kious folding dagger. And as usual the entire back-strap is elegantly filed. This could be Ron's finest work ever!
By the way - Ron is thinking of retiring and if that is the case examples of his work will only become more valuable in the very near future.
