Jerusalem Dagger

This one has a history. It was made to order for a true gentleman from Texas. I had all sorts of problems finishing it, it simply did not want to come together. I finally got to the point where I could talk to the collector and let him know it was almost finished. I ended up talking to his widow, he had passed away the week before. She was more than willing to honor his commitment but I could tell she was very relieved when I told her that it was not necessary. Anyways I put the final touch to the knife, changed a few things that I preferred from his original design. So here it is. Matt Walker damascus for the blade, ferrule and butt cap. Jerusalem olivewood for the sheath, the handle and the end button.
Please let me know what you think.
Thanks
Steve
