New acquisition - John White

HI,

I am new to posting but really wanted to share a couple of knives I recently had the good, good fortune to acquire. I am talking about a pair of John White's knives; I am happy to say I now own six of his knives.

These particular knives, although not recent work of his, IMHO are every bit as important as some of the incredible work John is producing today, such as the set he's currently finishing. But these "vintage" knives tell a story of evolution and are chapters in a journey.

They were both completed in late 2007 for a single client, both featuring Turkish Twist Damascus and Sambar Stag handle. John was kind enough to not only assist in this acquisition but then consult on, and help acquire a pair of matching sheathes made by another great artist, Paul Long. Paul created the stunning pair of matching sheaths you see here with lizard leather inserts.

I couldn't be more pleased with this set, and just wanted to share.


John
