These are a pair of identical Damascus folders that I customized as keepsakes for my Nephew and Daughter.

The handle material on this one for my nephew (a paleontologist) is wooley mammoth ivory with an opal thumb stud:

The handle material on this one for my Daughter is Desert Ironwood with a "Full Moon" Mother-of-Pearl inlay which was a button from my Grandmother:

It's hard to go wrong with amber stag, but those two customs are especially stunning. Beautiful knives, joe.

On the other end of the spectrum...

Here are some colorful matching pairs of Case Wharncliffe Trappers (6254W) and Mini Trappers (6207W)

The 1991 Trapper was my pop’s knife. Gave it to me several years ago. The slimline trapper is a 2018. Pickup at local hardware store. It’s gonna ride in the right front pocket. And it’s CV steel!! Gotta like.
