Custom Ares with Hamon-Liontribe Designs
working on a full custom for a local customer and came up with an awesome looking finish. this one has a ferric/copper etch to bring out the hamon line. this one really surprised me. very unique look.

Very interesting finish and blade shape. Perhaps the "Aurora" look will be a new product finish choice in your stable of choices. I like the look a-lot.

Not a bad name for it. Yeah, I plan to put this new finish on several new builds. I can imagine a tanto style with copper in the wrap and this finish.

That turned out very well. The handle color choice compliments the Harmon color line very well indeed. Had to re-read the part where this was for a customer. ( - =

thanks. yeah, the bulk of my work is full custom builds, but i will be doing several knives for sale with the same blade etch very soon. i always try to keep several things in the "for sale" inventory.

much appreciated. i think a Ringed Urban Legend will be the next model we do with this copper hamon finish. it is one of my favorite designs.

That's beautiful.
