The Native Americans
A knife with scrimshaw design and integrated finger stop. Total length 23 cm.
Inspired by the beauty of the animal kingdom, I ventured into capturing the essence of humankind through scrimshaw. This new design marks a significant evolution, featuring a meticulously crafted knife that showcases scrimshaw based on a photograph of two Native Americans. The knife blade is designed with an integrated finger stop, ensuring both functionality and elegance. The warm background for the scrimshaw is created from a piece of discolored reindeer horn, adding a touch of natural warmth and depth to the design. Framing the overall design is a sliver of sterling silver with fine file work, complemented by an end cap that ties the look together.
