Arpad Bojtos Custom Knife Viking Dagger
This is another great custom knife creation by Arpad Bojtos. TArpad Bojtos has hand carved the Damasteel blade, 420 stainless steel guard, and butt cap. The handle is elaborate carved walrus ivory and buffalo horn. The front of the guard depicts a Viking warrior landing on shore and the back depicts a fight between Native Americans and Vikings. The blade and pommel (front and back) are engraved with a Celtic Hound motif. The ivory handle has a carved Celtic Hound motif as well. The stand is made of forged iron and wood and depicts a beached Viking ship.
To be clear, the dark colored "vein" is not a crack in the handle the entire handle is tight and crack free. Due to the complexity and time it take Arpad Bojtos to make each knife he makes very few knives a year. Once you see this knife in person you are going to be amazed that he works solely with hand tools and files.
