Hand engraved folder

[BertE]

I just finished the engraving on this folder last night. The knife is made by Billy Meekins of Thunder Ridge Knives in Bel Air, MD. This wasn't an easy space to fill with scroll.

Comments welcome.

Bert, thats a beautiful piece of work. What style engraving is this? I've seen it on some classic western single six revolvers.

It's called American scroll. It's my own design, but I engrave a fair amount of single action revolvers in classic Colt factory "style" so I guess it reflects in my other work.

That punch dot background is almost always done on the cowboy guns.
