Comments: Many of you are already familiar with the stunning work of talented smith Johan Gustafsson, and those who aren't might want to check out his chapter in the recent David Darom book on some of the world's best folding knife makers. Johan's work is a feast for the eyes and he uses a variety of Swedish tool steels to produce his spectacular work as they take to heat coloring especially well.
This classic clip-point has images of mythical creatures on the blade and are nicely complimented by an excellent set of premium North Sea Fossil Mammoth Ivory scales. The heat colored titanium liners have matching back filing and the spacer is made of Damascus as well. Gold plated screws and a Damascus thumb-stud complete this sophisticated and elegant package. It's easy to see why Johan Gustafsson is one of the worlds best!
