Members SilverForgeStudio Posted September 2, 2019 Members Report Posted September 2, 2019 @pitersek I would like to know about the handle- I have seen aluminum honeycomb used before- but your handle material is it epoxy? How did you get the red fade to black- did you just mix pour or did you mold pour then insert the frame? looks incredible and very sleek! Great lines and love the sheath as well- they match like a glove for an assassins' hand- those two just GO together. Bravo mate! Quote

I am not a maker of the knife, please notice different signatures on the sheath and the knife . I am just a leatherworker. You can buy pices like this already prepared to make handles with it. The material is mentioned by you aluminum honeycomb and most propably some kind of epoxy. I will ask the maker if you want. I assume that to get this fade effect it was easier to mix epoxy and insert the frame into it. Otherway with pouring into chambers of the comb the transition would not be so smoothe as it is here - but it is just my opinion based on looking at finished piece. Thank you for the kind words about the set! I will pass it to the maker! Quote Fb Gallery: imgurInstagram
Members battlemunky Posted September 4, 2019 Members Report Posted September 4, 2019 That handle material is called C-Tek. http://www.compositecraftinc.com/C-TEK.html Completely unaffiliated, just posting for information's sake. :-) Quote
