Comments: This lovely Sakura was created by Australian native and martial arts instructor Glenn Waters. A resident of Japan since 1986, Glenn combines a host of traditional Japanese metals and materials to make his unique one-of-a-kind creations.

The lovely engraving on the blade, bolsters and spine of the knife was all done by Glenn in a variety of unusual and attractive motifs. And all of the engraving is in either 18K or 24K gold. The thumb stud is also engraved, and is hand turned from 18K gold as well.

The file work on the back-spring, which is enhanced by inlays of black-lip pearl, is wonderful, and continues on the inside of the fame which has been mirror polished. The scales, which are of fossil mammoth ivory, are gold wrapped with 24K wire that compliments the subtle color of the ivory perfectly.

This stunning piece defines "Art Knife". And we guarantee you will not be disappointed.
