Lockback damast knife #9


This knife is one of my first I received, it probably has serial number under 10.

The blade is 85 millimeters long and 4 millimeters thick and is shaped somehow as a feather..Or just I see it that way.

To wooden, walnut and damascus combination handle with brass pins, is blade attached with a brass screw from both sides. Wooden part of handle is attached to the middle part with 5 brass pins from each side, while the damascus part with 2 screws M4 from both sides.

Middle part is made from 2 millimeters thick brass plate, which works as spring for lock and is decorated with different shaped grooves all around. On the back, there's also a stainless steel part(which is also decorated), which prevents the blade from turning all around the axis.

Small brass pin attached to blade helps it to open or close.

Knife sheat is made for this knife, it fits perfectly. It's made from 3 millimeters thick black leather, thich has leather strap on back for belt and pin on top, for lock knife safely.
