This knife is created with a handle made of stabilized mammoth tusk, a material that has rested in the ground for thousands of years and now gains new life in a piece of timeless craftsmanship. The stabilized mammoth tusk provides beautiful depth in both color and structure, making each handle unique. As decoration, tin inlays have been added, with patterns carefully hand-filed to perfection. This detail highlights the precision of the craftsmanship and gives the knife a distinctive and classical character. At the front and back, the handle is finished with silver pieces, which tie the design together and reinforce its exclusive expression.

The blade is ground in damascus stainless steel from Balbach – a steel that combines strength, durability, and remarkable aesthetics. The flowing pattern in the steel brings the blade to life and makes it more than just a tool; it becomes an aesthetic element in its own right.

The sheath is crafted in hardened leather and adorned with a dragon motif in Viking style. The motif is both carved and embossed into the leather, giving a strong sense of depth, strength, and history. The raw and symbolic dragon image stands in striking contrast to the refined details of the handle, underlining the knife’s connection to tradition, myth, and Nordic heritage.

With its dimensions – 120 mm at the handle and 95 mm at the blade – the knife is well-balanced and comfortable to hold. Its size allows the noble materials and fine craftsmanship to be fully appreciated, while maintaining practical usability.
