Comments
There are times that everything goes well. This was one of them. A composite O1-pure nickel twist Damascus body of three bars with an O1 edge bar. The twist was sufficiently even to make the transition between bars virtually vanish. The grip was mahogany and nickel silver. It's gone but not forgotten.
