Description
The mammoth fossil pearl damascus swayback knife from custom Kentucky maker David R. Davis (Trammell Creek) is an extraordinary large swayback jack that blends rare natural materials with exquisite hand craftsmanship. This one-of-a-kind slipjoint showcases both artistry and function in equal measure.
The blade is forged from Alabama Damascus in a raindrop pattern, giving it both strength and a striking layered appearance. Measuring 3.25 inches, the blade opens with a nail nick and features a half-stop, sitting flush in all positions. Its stainless steel spring is intricately fileworked in Damascus, highlighting Davis’s attention to detail.
The handles are exhibition-grade, crafted from 25,000-year-old mammoth fossil recovered from the permafrost and paired with a fiery mother of pearl escutcheon. Threaded and fluted stainless steel bolsters add refinement, while the coin-etched, fileworked stainless liners give this knife unmatched depth and character.
At 4.25 inches closed and 7.5 inches overall, this knife is substantial in hand yet finely balanced. Weighing 3.3 ounces, it has a presence that collectors will immediately appreciate.
The mammoth fossil pearl damascus swayback knife comes in a protective zippered case and remains in mint, unused condition. A true heirloom piece, it represents the pinnacle of Davis’s craftsmanship and the artistry of custom slipjoints.
