That is a beauty! I love the dimensions, looks a very 'capable' knife. What price are you asking for it?

[Edgehog]

What a handsome beast of a knife!
I really like the sturdy drop point & the handle looks very comfotable too.

[Wrangler]

Murat`s work is really superb!

A very massive blade with nicely grained stabilized maple handles.
Hope to see this beauty at the knifeshow on sunday, Murat.

Greets,

Wolfgang

BTW is that the damascus you forged by yourself at Markus Balbach`s?

[richslaney]

That is stunning....But what's the price ?

[shing]

Looks like it could chop down a few trees.

Big brute. A good looking handle and knife shape, but isnt the blade a bit thick?
Just my opinion. Vell done :-)

[Wrangler]

Handled the knife yesterday at the Bladeshow.
Great handling!!! Well balanced and nicely done.

All of Murats knives are well balanced and give a solid feel in the hand. Bought a very nice fixed user with 9cm D2 blade and bocote handles from him and I`m v e r y pleased with it.

BTW the sheaths he makes are not bad either!

Great knife Murat. Is it just a problem with the photo of are the rear two mosaic pins 'camouflaged' if so how do you do it?

[Murat]

I dont know what is "camouflage" ???

But the Pins are all the same it looks otherwise because the photo us not so good ...Sorry

Google traslates it as 'Tarnung' sorry only know about 10 words of German.

What I ment was that I could see that there where three pins but two of them blended into the wood.

Great knife again.

Er maint nicht Tarnung wie ins Militär, sondern das die 2 pins weiter auf dem griff nicht so sichtbar sind.

I like your worksmanship a lot. My personal preference is for a lighter blade, but I'm sure it will sell, as many people like their blades to be as you made it.
