Have not posted here in a while, doesn't mean I haven't been in the shop everyday trying to get thing finished and out the door.
this one was just completed yesterday so I thought why not this one to let others look and see what they think.

Blade 8 1/2" 1095 and 15N20, OAL 13 1/2", Stainless Guard and cap with a copper spacer in the guard, and of course stag.

Thanks for looking, let me know what you think

Just got off the phone to Mike and it turns out this knife will be coming my way via Paul Long. Really looking forward to seeing it in the flesh...so to speak!!

Mike once again you have moved the bar a little higher.
 
Mike, this is an incredible work of art! I would love to see a WIP on your Damascus, preferably this pattern! It's screaming gorgeous!!! Why not the knife too! I love the way you made the guard as well, heck I love every aspect of this knife. From the Damascus, to the guard, all the way to the filed butt cap to match the STAG!!!! Incredible job all the way around!

But seriously, do let us know what we need to do, to talk you into a Damascus WIP!?!?! If it's even possible, I know you're very busy and WIP's are very demanding, but this pattern is so incredibly beautiful, please share the MAGIC!
BTW, I'm guessing it's a crushed W's version<???>, maybe? I've seen some similar to it that was called "Explosion Pattern". I don't know what that pattern would be for sure, but what I do know for sure, is that it's beautiful, and one day, I want to be able to make some like it! Thanks for sharing, Rex
