Hi everyone. Nickel silver hilts, maroon micarta and asian buffalo for the bolsters with ivory for the rest of the handle. The knives will be headed to Greg Gutcher who made the pouch sheaths from elephant trunk and hippo.

Hi Chief,
It was cross cut, yes. I was told the piece was likely very old and was the reason for some of the beautiful color and pattern.
