You all may or may not remember Luciano Dornless. Another maker from South America who created some outstanding work. Though still active we have not seen much in the states these last few years. Fortunately for me I had the opportunity to acquire this incredible piece last week.
Style: Camp knife
Blade: Integral point drop with false edge, measuring 11 and 5 / 8 inches length. The bolster is integral and file worked sculpted.
Overall Length: 16.5 inches.
Damascus steel alloy VCO (2721) with W1 steel, wolf's tooth pattern.
Handle: Presentation sambar stag roll, affixed with a stainless steel pin.
Buttcap: damascus steel sculpted to file in the form of tangerine (or shell).
Sheath: buffalo leather with damascus button in the form of an oak leaf.
I am thrilled to have been offered the opportunity to add this fine piece to my collection. Look at the steel, stag, and sheath. Too bad we do not see more of his work these days.
