Description: Mastersmith JD Smith has an artistic vision to his work that is exceptional -- a primitive sense of power is combined with meticulous precision.
The upswept blade was forged to shape from 1200 layer Damascus. The tight pattern shows the remnants of the distortion caused by hammer blows -- showing tremendous control over the forging process.
Caramel toned oosic is surrounded by antiqued bronze fittings, resulting in an almost antique appearance. The carving in the leather sheath is a style that JD has developed and is done freehand using a flat knife. A masterpiece with exceptional fit and finish throughout.
