Though not very
"profitable" for all the labor it took to hand
fabricate, but it was a "true labor of love" to
create this "One Of A Kind" creation.

18-K Y.G.
18-K Pocket Knife
"One Of A Kind"
Finding a quality 18-K
Pocket Knife, is nearly impossible, so my challenge was create, this "One Of A
Kind" pocket knife.
As I held this quality
"Kershaw" Knife in my hands, I knew that
"hand forging" the two handle covers would
be quite challenging and time consuming, but
in the end, I would create the "Ultimate
Pocket Knife" for those
collectors of fine knives, or any one
choosing the "Ultimate Gift".
Starting with two
sheets of flat 18-K yellow gold, I
carefully hand forged (with thousands and
thousands of hammer blows)
the gold,
slowly curving and shaping the gold to match
the overall shape and curvature of the knife
handle. Then the gold was annealed and
process was repeated fifteen more times.
Over a period of a few
days, the two gold handles became a
perfect mate and match to the handle of the
knife. Later each and every "hammer blow"
was "hand burnished" to remove those "hammer
blows" that created its actual shape. Then
it was given its final high polish, to
finalize the creation of this "One Of A
Kind" 18-K Gold Pocket Knife".
The pocket knife is
4-3/4" long when open and 2-3/4" long when
closed. The gross weight (gold & knife) is
47.0 grams.
There is
actually enough gold in this knife to
create 10 to 12 ladies rings. A quality
creation, for those who appreciate an
outstanding handcrafted, "One Of A Kind"
18-K gold knife.
"Truly
Exceptional"
Only $1450.
