Muonionalusta Meteorite Knife with Dinosaur Gembone

$5,000

This one-of-a-kind knife features a blade made from Muonionalusta meteorite, with the distinctive Widmanstätten pattern visible throughout the etched meteorite surface. The spine of the blade has been left in its natural state, preserving some of the original texture and character of the meteorite. The meteorite blade is welded to a Damascus steel handle with Muonionalusta meteorite bolsters. The handle scales are made from two varieties of stabilized dinosaur gembone displaying rich reds, oranges, and other naturally varied fossilized cell patterns. The two types of gembone are separated by a bar of Muonionalusta meteorite, tying the handle design back to the blade. The knife includes a custom handmade leather sheath inlaid with snapping turtle leather. Both the knife and sheath were made entirely by Rough Cut Lapidary (RCL) and are laser engraved or stamped with the RCL logo. Also included are a custom display case and certificate of authenticity. Price: $5,000 USD
