I thought I would post a few pictures of three custom Jade handled knives I finished yesterday. They are all very complex handles so they were a real challenge.

Very nice complex work Michael. Did you grind into the bolsters to get it all flush? Fantastic looking knives, was it a commission for the maker?

All of the metal and stone is sanded and polished at the same time.....
The knives were brought to my studio for the Jade work.
