Comments: This is another wonderful Five-bar Damascus drop-point folder by Kaj Embretsen. As you would expect this is sole-authorship piece from Kaj.
There are gold pins throughout, and the back-strap has a hand-checkered release and is beautifully filed to boot. The fossil Mammoth scales are superb, and have the most wonderful blue-green color. The liners are delicately filed all the way around and are extremely clean and even.
Five bar damascus is extremely difficult to make - and Kaj does it about as well as anyone. There are three gold pins in the blade instead of a nail-nick, and there is a gold bail to complete the package. A simply stunning knife!
