Damascus bowie. Twisted graveyard pattern. Mammoth ivory handle.

Hi,
I wanted to show the latest knife I’ve made.
It’s a 6 twisted damascus bars plus one 5160 bar edge.
I had no name for the pattern so I named it twisted graveyard, because of all the little crosses.
The handle is mammoth ivory.
It just won “Best Damascus Blade” in the MAC (Muestra Anual de Cuchilleria / Annual Knifemaking Show) in Buenos Aires.
Hope you like it.

Sweet pattern on a smooth, elegant knife. I see why it won.

Very beautiful work! Is the guard made of two discs or one disc that you cut for the figure 8 style?

Thank you guys!
The guard is a 4 twist piece, just one disc carved in the figure 8.
