    I Dub Thee Mackintosh Sgian

    I decide to call this style the Mackintosh after Charles Rennie Mackintosh the Scottish designer. The style reminds me somewhat of his work.

    Sorry forgot to post what the materials are. The blade is damascus steel, ebony handle and a handcast pommel with a moonstone. Thanks fellas.

    So, this is how it looks after etching. Very subtle looking Damascus steel. I like it.
