I dressed up this Brute de Forge a little with some left-over Ladder Damascus.
The customer supplied his own Bloodwood to match some other piece of equipment he had.
Blade is 1084.

What a handsome Brute!
The knife aint bad either Karl.
:campfire:
They can certainly be called a little goofy lookin' by some, but are amazingly comfortable in about any direction you can hold the knife.
Guess I owe Keeslar another 2 bucks. :saywhat:
We all owe him don't we Karl.
Maybe four years ago at Blade I walked up to his table and put $2.00 in his hand.
He said I was the first person that has ever paid him!
I think we were both joking - just a little. :smileystooges:
I love those hammered finger guards. Great knife.
Nice one, Karl!
Another beauty Karl. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
