Title: I think I found a knife to match my Rose Oak Bows
Post by: Marblesonac on February 16, 2007, 04:23:00 PM
It is an RA Matt,  knife is 7-3/4" OAL with a 3-1/4" blade. The handle is Mammoth Ivory scales with Gabon Ebony Bolsters. Thin Nickel silver spacers between the blade and handle to accent the filework. Filework is along the spine and all around the bottom of the handle. Blade is Damascus , made up of 185 layers of 1084 carbon steel and 15N20 Nickel steel, heat treated to 58 on the Rockwell scale.
This should match my Rose Oak Bows     :bigsmyl:

Someone put some time into that knife. Does that really have three different styles of file work on the back of the blade? Fit of the handles and pins looks pretty good from what I can see. Who's work is it?

DarkeGreene and boyoulongbowman, Richard Matt(RA MATT) is the knife maker.  You can search for him on Ebay. He does not have a website, but I have his email addy if you want to contact him.  Just PM me and I will get it to you.

If you let him know what you are looking for, he can make it.

He's a great guy to deal with.

Varmit, do you have a picture of your knife, I'd love to see it.
