    Surowy #2

    Hello.
    I try to make knives with high carbon steel.
    This is NC6, very similar to 52100 steel.
    Hair on my hand pop up as a popcorn on the pan
    I love it
    "Surowy" means "raw" in polish language.

    steel - NC6 / 3,7 mm [0.146"]
    length - 256 mm [10.079"]
    blade - 139 mm [5.472"]
    handle - dyed natural alder burl, copper
    sheath - leather

    Beautiful and elegant looking knife and great use of contrasting materials that compliment each other, the finish on the flats is superb.

    I love the way the sheath and handle go together and the combination of rawness and elegance. Excellent!

    I was thinking: "What a beautiful work knife".
    But it would be a pity to put this knife to use:it's too beautiful!!
    Congratulations (both knife and sheat).

    Beautiful , the combination of the raw steel and the crisp clean grind with the slight upsweep compared to the dark alder and the textured copper is wonderful then add the matching dyed sheath and its a winner .

    You never cease to amaze me Bona.
    Beautiful and elegant package.
    Especially liking the matching colours between the sheath and knife handle.
