Description: Anders creates knives with an excellent fusion between cultures. He has combined the techniques and styles of his native Sweden with those learned from his apprenticeship under Scott Slobodian.
The highly polished and stabilized redwood lace burl has a very dramatic swirling grain structure and is very comfortable to hold. The copper guard has been textured and is perfectly fit to the carbon steel blade. The antiqued finish gives a timeless air to the knife. An armor piercing tip finishes it off with flair and strength. The copper and butt make for perfect balance. Exceptional fit and finish throughout.
