Every once in a while knives become "grails" after you possess them. This has become one of those special pieces.
Even though I was focussed on this particular knife, I tried to hold on to my promises to myself to not buy anymore fixed knives.
Until this beauty caught my eye. I am damn happy and proud to own yet another a full hand made knife by my friend Gudy.

Thank you brother for making me such beauty,
p.s. Click the image, the knife looks better a bit larger.
The sheath to go will be ready soon enough
