Description: Hungarian knifemaker Csaba Vojko was born in 1967. He has been making knives since 1990 and brings a tremendous amount of skill to his work. He specializes in high carved, high performance knives and black powder cut and shoots. He forges his own damascus and blades and does his own engraving. He is a spectacular artist.
Csaba forged the blade from his own carbon steel damascus, combining 75Ni8 and K720 carbon steels. The high contrast pattern immediately grabs attention. The integral damascus bolster and been meticulously carved and engraved.
The kingwood (Dalbergia cearensis) handle is nicely contoured and textured for a secure, comfortable grip. A true rosewood, kingwood is harvested from a small tree that is restricted to a small area in Brazil. Extremely rare, kingwood was so famous for being used in the finest furniture during the 17th century that it was often only sold to royalty. This is a knife you won't want to put down.
The knife is accompanied by a hand tooled leather sheath. The sheath is tooled to resemble the carving on the knife.
Exceptional work throughout!
