From the engraver: "The engraving gives you the picture of both masculine and feminine elements. The calm beast is the omen of the successful hunt; the victorious warrior´s roar is its celebration. Even though the masculine power and rapaciousness of the beast can lead to success and allow us to overcome every obstacle, it is when combined with feminine beauty and power that harmony is achieved. Together, both of these life forces give us real consummate happiness." This one of a kind piece features a mesmerizing hand-engraved stainless steel handle with 24K gold inlays by Lucie Bandikova. The blade is hand-forged 'Hornets Nest' damascus by Mike Norris; the one-hand button lock and the thumb stud are set with smoky quartz gemstones.
