designed and made by me.rough work but i love the curves on this persian.
the handle is maple wood.awesome grains on this one.
if you observe the bolster it has some rough solder lines on it.
i am learning bladesmithing and trying to become pro at it.

Great Job on this one mate. Thanks for sharing :)

Hi Manishmap,

First of all, welcome to IFG.

Second, this is the wrong thread to post your query. There are already many in this section that talks about import of knives. Please go through them.

Third, please don't post in all caps. It is impolite.

Regards
Jeff Cooper advocated four basic rules of gun safety:
1) All guns are always loaded. Even if they are not, treat them as if they are.
2) Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3) Keep your finger off the trigger till your sights are on the target.
4) Identify your target, and what is behind it.

hi to all,
you guys seem to be pretty much fond of knives.
is it just the collection or do some of you know or are learning how to use them?
i mean to say for self defence only.
