Comments: This classic folding "Tilgary" dagger is one of Warren Osborne's newest and most interesting models. Of course the knife has the flawless fit and finish you would expect from an Osborne, but it is the perforated Mother of Pearl inlays fully carved by Master Julie Warenski that really makes this bird sing!
As you can imagine it takes an incredible amount of time to do this kind of work with Mother of Pearl, and Julie compliments her wonderful carving with classic gold-trimmed scroll engraving that fully covers both sides of the frame.
We have only seen a couple of these daggers trimmed this way before, and Julie hates to do them because the work is so tedious and unforgiving. And we cannot imagine the cost of reproducing this knife today!
Completing this wonderful package is a solid 24K Rose Gold Bale and a stainless Mike Norris blade with Fuller Groove that has been inlayed with three gold discs.
It would be hard to think of a way to make this exceptional folder look any better!
Thanks Warren and Julie!
