Default Curt Erickson Ring Dagger - Julie Warenski Engraving

The Solvang Custom Knife Show is just around the corner (April 28, 2012). Participant makers at such invitationals have a limit on the number of pieces they can present. Consequently, CKCA member Curt Erickson (and Julie) had to decide just which knives would be going to Solvang - and this one WILL NOT be going.

It was just too gorgeous not to show on our CKCA forum, so here you go (sorry, it's already spoken for). Hope you enjoy.

A separate thread will appear in the next day or two with a couple of the Solvang knives, but will not include any of Curt's art daggers such as this one, though they will be at the show. Description of this magnificent ring dagger follows the image below:



Modernist Art Ring Dagger: California style ring dagger with a cutting-edge flair about it. Overall length 11 ½" with 7 1/4" double ground Rob Thomas dot matrix stainless Damascus. Hot blued gun metal fittings with carved and sculpted rings, with French grey. Carved pre-ban Elephant Ivory handle. Full metal German silver sheath with hot blued button. Fully engraved, 24ct gold inlay with French grey by Master Engraver Julie Warenski-Erickson.

This amazing knife and sheath as well many many others will be
displayed in an 80+ page section of Julie's forthcoming book (end of 2012),
"The Art Knives and Knife Engraving of Julie Warenski-Erickson"....

All the best,
David Darom (ddd)

Now that Curt and Julie came up with this magnificent
new Ring Dagger, I shall enjoy changing the layout of
the page in Julie's book with Curt's 2010 amazing Ring Dagger....

I shall have both pieces side by side!

See attached, my setup for the "old" spread in
Julie's forthcoming book.


All the best,
David Darom (ddd)


The original photography of the knives shown here was done by Coop!
