Frosolone Fix
After reading Paulo’s book Coltello A Scatto Antico I kinda fell for the old Frosolone style.. but even if I was lucky enough to find one I sure wouldn’t be able to afford it. Luckily we have JimBrown257 (JTK) who was able to make me these four beautiful knives for a very reasonable price. Each slightly different and that just makes them all the more special to me.
I just wanted to say thanks to Jeremy for creating these pieces that will be handed down in my family.

Nice!
Re: Frosolone Fix
Mike, Those are really nice. Love the scales on all. Are they brass bolsters? Does he do N/S bolsters? Love the flatguards also.

Re: Frosolone Fix
That certainly speaks to the hand built nature of these fine pieces. Great work and wonderful set. Thanks for posting these pictures!portlandmike wrote: ↑Thu Jun 13, 2019 3:35 am...Each slightly different and that just makes them all the more special to me.

Beautiful pieces Mike.
The horn is outstanding ,and love the flatguards and blade shapes.
You can see the love and time that went into making these pieces.
Wish I had one .
Great build job as usual Jeremy.

Re: Frosolone Fix
Very cool knives, and each one is unique.
What are they? Around eight inches OAL?

That second one down in the first pic is the 1084 steel that I was talking about the other day. I couldn't get the stamp as deep in that steel.

Re: Frosolone Fix
It will be interesting to see if the guy who does my sharpening mentions that one was any different
