Hello Denis,

Thanks for showing this piece of art out of your cooperation.

I really like the form of the knife, the flawless execution of the sheath and the breathtaking engraving work

Your mirror polish is amazing

The only point which is not really convincing me: the reptile insert innthe sheath. For me, it does not really match with "traditionell" theme of the engraving.

Looking forward to seeing more of your work.

You're probably right.
My idea was to connect inlay with sambar.
But this was right without incision.
If the incision becomes a focal point of the whole perhaps a sheath without inlays could be the best choice.
Thanks for your comment
