The Fat Lady Sang...

[Doug Campbell]

Here is a custom order I've been working on for a while, calling her the Fat Lady. W's surrounded by twist Damascus, all W Damascus fittings, frame handle and premium stabilized Curly Koa. 6 1/2" X 2 3/8" X.300" blade.
     

Thanks for looking

Not only does she sing but it looks like she's pointing to some rising trout.  Very cool knife!

The chunky blade is not my cup o' tea, but everything else is awesome! Can we get a better look at the steel, pretty please? It looks like there is some serious shimmery goodness going on in there.
Really like the handle and fittings.

Wow, that might be the coolest pattern I've seen. Very Nice!

[kbaknife]

Now, that's different, right there.
Very nice Doug.

I would hate to meet that in a dark alley!  Looks like it has some heft to it.  Pretty cool blade Doug.  Always nice to see something different!

Fish I did not see any fish. That is a special pattern in that blade, Very nice.

That's a real beast. What a beauty.

Yea it took me a bit to warm up to it too Darcy. Built nearly identical to the new owners specs and drawing. After getting her built I'm kinda liking it now.

Here's a detail pic of the pattern, crushed Ws, tiled, forged to shape then forge weld the twist bars onto the Ws. It was fun...
