Henry Frank made this extraordinary symmetrical dagger for the 2003 Art Knife Invitational Show in San Diego. Every area on this knife has been masterfully engraved and embellished by H.H. Frank.
The French Greyed O-1 Tool Steel blade has been masterfully engraved and has 24KT Gold inlays in it. The spine of the knife has been checkered and greyed with more Gold inlay. Even the inside of the spine has been engraved and has Gold inlays.
The 14KT Gold bolsters are fully engraved as well. The Pre-ban Elephant Ivory scales are held with engraved Gold pins and have Gold escutcheons on both sides.
This presentation art dagger is finished with a Gold toothpick and Gold tweezers. It is one of the nicest HH Frank knives I have ever seen.
