Stefano,
Nicely done. The second knife is wicked looking. I really like the first one though. Your patina on the brass bolsters is great. I've rarely seen brass with a patina, just shiny and brassy, but these look more like bronze, my favorite material for fittings.
Good job!

Many years ago Kemal (Fogg and Sayan) made some knives with brass fittings that were blackened. They were awesome knives, but the fittings were just black. What I like about your fittings, Stefano, is the mottled brown tones. It adds a lot of character and compliments the wood scales. It's obvious you put some thought into your materials and how you finished them. Well done!
