As always you do great inlay work. That blade is cool also.

This is beautiful work. The inlays are simply gorgeous. You may want to consider doing a blog on your inlay methods.

Thanks for sharing.

Now that is a knife you wouldn’t mind getting cut by – if you had to be cut anyway. Beautiful knife.

The knife is 22 cm length and the blade is 9 cm.
Yes I had to be cut something from time by time but never using this knife.
As far as I know a knife like this used as short sward by samurai in Japan.
