[Montejano]

Llevaba tiempo sin hacer cuchillos y estoy m?s centrado en los grabados y sus t?cnicas .Los que conoc?is algo de mis trabajos , sab?is que mi estilo es muy particular , en la l?nea de orfebrer?a y joyer?a . En el foro se ven cuchillos peque?os, pr?cticos y muy manejables ; algunos de ellos verdaderas joyas .
He tenido unos d?as libres y me he animado a realizar un cuchillo peque?o y diferente a mi estilo habitual de trabajo . Ten?a dudas de colocarlo , pero finalmente me he decidido . Es mi primer cuchillo peque?o de este tipo y debido al gran nivel del foro aportar? poco .

Pero deseo dedicarlo a mi amigo Don Cowles , de ah? el t?tulo de " Mi amigo Don " , por acercarme a este foro y estar entre vosotros.
S? que a Don , le gustan los cuchillos peque?os .

Un abrazo a Don y un saludo a todos vosotros .

CARACTERISTICAS :
Hoja de acero noruego 12 C 27 , grabado al "agua fuerte " por ambas caras .
Empu?adura o mango en marfil , acero y cobre . Con calado del marfil y el estilo de la empu?adura se denomina en Espa?a con el nombre de " caj?n " por ir sujeto el marfil sin remaches , ni pasadores .

It took time without making knives and I am more centered in the engravings and their techniques. Those that know something of my works, know that my style is very particular, in the goldwork line and jeweler's. In the forum small, practical and very governable knives are come; some of them true jewels.
I have had some free days and I have cheered up to carry out a small knife and different to my working habitual style. He/she had doubts of placing it, but finally I have decided. It is my first small knife of this type and due to the great level of the forum it will contribute a little.

But I want to dedicate it to my friend Don Cowles, of there My friend's title Don ", to come closer to this forum and to be among you.
I know that to Don, he likes small knives.

A hug to Don and a greeting to all you.

Hilt or mango in ivory, steel and copper. With soaked of the ivory and the style of the hilt is denominated in Spain with the " drawer " name to go fellow the ivory without rivets, neither pins.

Me parece un muy buen cuchillo, Montejano. Yo s?lo llevo un a?o como grabador de joyas, pero el mundo de los cuchillos me parece fascinante, sobre todo desde que he descubierto las posibilidades que ofrece gracias a internet.

Estoy grabando mi segundo cuchillo. No env?o fotos todav?a porque el nivel es de un novato. Pero mi intenci?n es poder llegar a realizar trabajos como los vuestros.

Hasta otra

It seems to me a good knife, Montejano. I've been engraving jewels for only one year, but the world of knives seems fascinating to me. Above all since I've discovered its infinite possibilities thanks to Internet.

I'm engraving my second knife. No photos sent, because my level is still very low (newby). But my intention is to learn from you all and make those great works.

Bye

My friend Antonio-

I am enormously flattered that you chose to make a knife in the style of my own. You have outdone me with your formidable talents and experience, and created a thing of beauty.

Un abrazo-

Don
