Shun Fujikawa Custom Knife Blacklip Tahitian Pearl Shell Lockback with 24Kt Gold Makie Overlays

This art knife was made by master knife maker Shun Fujikawa from Japan. It features the nicest Blacklip Pearl shell scales I have ever seen. I have been waiting almost 3 years for this knife. It features 24Kt Gold Makie designs of traditional Japanese patterns. Makie stands for "sprinkled picture" the process dates back over a thousand years ago. The technique is accomplished by layering pure Gold and pure silver with urushi lacquer. This process is repeated many times until the image has a gorgeous delicate three-dimensional impression.

Shun Fujikawa's knives have been featured in Knives Points of Interest books. He only attends one US knife show a year. Do not miss out on the opportunity to add this lovely custom knife to your collection.
