Comments: Here is a very rare large Spear-point by inter-frame master Steve Hoel. It has an unusually shaped blade and wonderful inlays of flawless presentation grade Bark Water Buffalo. As with all of Steve’s masterpieces the fit and finish is flawless and the knife opens and closes with astonishing smoothness.
We have never seen another of this model in 30 years of collecting Hoel's, and we believe it may be one-of-a-kind.
The engraving is by Italian Gun Engraving Master Giancarlo Pedretti. The superb design is flawlessly executed and is some of the finest in this style we have ever seen.
This piece also comes from the famous Suzuki Collection in Japan.
Giancarlo has not engraved a lot of knives which means they rarely come to market - so don't miss this opportunity to acquire something truly rare and exquisite.
