My most recent purchase......a George Muller piece.
He is a maker from South Africa that I have known and admired for a few years now.
Damascus blade , dyed mastodon tooth scales and meteorite bolsters.
Yes , meteorite.
It machines like metal and when etched with acid , brings out an amazing pattern of triangles.
I have been after one of these for three years and picked it up this past fall.
It is a sickness.
