Are there any 'tactical' style (i.e. Strider or Emerson-ish) knives that feature Damascus blades?
An Emerson Commander or CQC-7 with Damascus blade and carbon fiber or mother-of-pearl handles...drool......

There are, but most of them are full-custom art knives. Not the kind of thing I'd stick in a pocket and carry around.

I've seen a couple of original damascus Pat Crawford folders that were gorgeous...

There is the MOD Dieter special edition with Damascus blade. I don't recall offhand if it's made in auto-only.

How about this?

Doesn't fold but it does cut (both edges!)

Bud Nealy 'kozuka' made with Meier stainless damascus.

Suggested carry package.

Kimber Ultra CDP (yes Skunk, those are carbon fiber grips).

Microtech has made a few runs of damascus LCCs, here is a pic of the cream of the crop.

If you were a rich man, get ahold of one of the Caspian damascus slides for a 1911 and then carry along with it a custom backup folder with a damascus blade.


Style in weaponry, hoooyah, there's something to drool about.

I thought about that. I'm starting to save my pennies but will probably blow it on a Garand or SLR first.
