William Henry Knife LAKESHORE Fossil Brain Coral Mike Norris HORNET’s NEST #1/50:
$1389.99

This listing is for an Exclusive William Henry B09 Kestrel called the LAKESHORE.

** This knife was the first in a set of 50. Only 50 exist in the world. Although they are from the same set, each one is completed separately, and all have their own unique quirks and designs among the same components.*

This Kestrel’s production date was June 27th, 2012.

The one-hand button lock and the thumb stud are set with ocean colored topazes. The Kestrel is a simple design that is shorter than other B-models. The elegant slight curved shape of the blade and handle on this design is a great place to show off exotic materials.

Master blades-smith Mike Norris decided to go with the “Hornet’s Nest” Damascus blade. Usually, this pattern is only on numbered series pieces and wooden scale inlays. This specific design though always reminds me of a set of waves incoming toward the shore, and leaving behind what drifted so close: seashell fragments, glass, beauty within our ocean.. Memories of your toes in the sand and collecting shells. The name of the design does not always have to fit the theme. It is how the finished products appears to the collector.

The manual thumb and button stone are two blue topazes positioned within 18k gold bezels. It is stunning a pair of gems that emphasize the placement of the curvy hand-carved sterling silver that is above the ancient fossil scales.

The majestic fossilized brain coral scales are the perfect center piece. This particular fossil is very heavy with the blue while the white is more condensed. It is mind-boggling and inspiring just to sit back and think about what this fossil has seen and weathered through over the centuries. Where it would have grown, drifted, died and finally collected to be molded into something new.

Geologists say it could be around 110,000 years old. A slice of a natural history that can be in your pocket or displayed in your favorite office or room.

The carrying case, wooden box, and leather clip-case are in prime new condition. The certificate of authenticity has a couple ink spots. William Henry’s old printed COAs never dry fully.

The knife has never been carried or sharpened. It is in pristine condition as well.
