Thread Name: good ideas about sharp knives
Subject: RE: good ideas about sharp knives
It looks as if the Boye knives have changed dramatically since I was collecting them. He used to specialize in fine cutlery and belt knives ornamented with very good low relief etching. Too bad. For example, I have a cleaver decorated with a 3 x 5 inch etching of a mountain lion standing on a tree limb. Beautiful work. He wouldn't tell me how he got etching to produce an effect almost like engraving.
