Description: This elegant folding knife by Montana knifemaker Mel Fassio immediately demands attention.
The spearpoint blade is hand ground 440C stainless steel. The spine is hand fileworked in a vine pattern. The sides of the blade have been hand engraved in graceful scrollwork.
416 stainless steel bolsters are dovetailed to giraffe bone scales. Mel engraved the bolsters in scrollwork, a nice complement to the engraving on the blade. Giraffe bone handle scales are set on brass liners. The backbar is hand fileworked, matching the spine.
Nice work throughout!
