Thread: Various Knives

Sometimes it is the small ones that take the most to get right and this letter opener and stand proved that again.

Knife is 3 3/4 in NitroV blade with black paper micarta and resin ivory with the stand being a piece of black ivory with the resin ivory holder set into it.

What is black ivory - is it animal or resin based?

Lovely work in any event.

Black ivory is an African wood Ross. I have a piece of red ivory and have seen pink ivory as well.
