Nice work by Mark P
Mark has taken up knife making as a hobby after early retirement, and has sent us a couple of snaps.
The first one is a blade in random damascus of his own design, with handle in Juma Ivory Snake and polished brass.
Mark even made some prawn skewers from off-cuts of the Random pattern damascus!
The below one is his first, using a Fighter Bowie blade and adding the handle in antler and brass butt plate. A matching bottle opener is a nice tough, Mark also modified the guard to his design.
