Default My New Hillbill Damascus Knife

Also posted this over on BCUK for those who don't go there...
Here's a damascus blade knife that Mark made for me.
What can I say? It's absolutely amazing! I think the pictures speak for themselves.
It was a real pleasure working with Mark/Hillbill. We talked about the design and handle materials and sheath. And then I got it in the post a couple of days ago. I cannot recommend his work highly enough.
The blade is made from damascus steel, and is 3 3/4" in length. The handle is made from Walnut and is 4 1/4". The edge is RAZOR sharp. I mean, REALLY dead sharp!
I'm sure he will give more details for anyone wanting to know.
If you are looking for a bespoke knife then I can't think of anyone else who you'd want to go to.
Incredible work.
Anyway. Here's some pictures (sorry they're only links - for some reason I continually have problems having the pictures in the post. So if anyone could post them up instead it'd be greatly appreciated).
