Case XX Wild Horse Custom Exotic Patchwork Gemstone Cheetah Cub Knife #001

Description

The wild horse gemstone cheetah cub is an extraordinary J. Kidd creation that transforms the Case XX Cheetah Cub into a mosaic of exotic color, natural materials, and intricate hand craftsmanship. Individually signed and numbered #001 of only 100 made, this first-serial example holds an especially desirable position within the limited edition and showcases one of the most elaborate handle treatments found on a Wild Horse Custom.

The patchwork handles bring together an impressive assortment of materials including Jade, Turquoise, Coral, Wild Horse Jasper, Onyx, Sodalite, Chrysocolla, Rhodonite, Purple Spiny, Orange Spiny, and additional exotic accents. Individually fitted into a complex mosaic and polished to an exceptional shine, the materials create dramatic transitions in color, pattern, and texture across the frame. The result gives the wild horse gemstone cheetah cub remarkable visual depth and ensures the natural character of the materials remains at the center of the design.

J. Kidd’s custom work extends throughout the knife. Engraved nickel silver bolsters frame the patchwork handles, while an engraved backspring and meticulously fileworked liners continue the decorative treatment along the spine and interior of the frame. A Tru-Sharp stainless steel blade with swing guard preserves the distinctive character of the Cheetah Cub pattern while complementing the extensive custom embellishment.

At 3 1/2 inches closed, the Cheetah Cub provides a compact canvas for an extraordinary amount of hand-fitted material and decorative metalwork. This example is individually signed and numbered by J. Kidd, owner and knife artist of Wild Horse Custom Knives, documenting its position as the coveted #001 serial in an edition of only 100 pieces.

Presented in a high-end exotic Bubinga Wood Display Case with Certificate of Authenticity, the wild horse gemstone cheetah cub is a centerpiece-level collector piece. Its elaborate patchwork construction, extensive engraving and filework, distinctive swing-guard pattern, and first-production serial make it an exceptional example for an advanced Case XX or Wild Horse Custom collection.
