I got this in the mail yesterday. It's a custom knife I had made by Tiago De Matos of Wild Edge Knives in England. Several months ago, a good friend of mine tagged me on Facebook to look at the knife Tiago had made him. I instantly fell in love with the guy's work, especially after I looked at all the stuff he had posted on FB. Anyway...I decided to have Tiago make me a skinning knife and this is what I received. He named it the "Flamboyant Peacock". I told him I liked flashy stuff because I wanted to be able to find my knife after I laid it down in the leaves. He certainly met the challenge!
The first thing that blew me away when I started unwrapping my package was the fact that the knife came in its own wooden box. I thought that was a very classy touch. He also included a nice card thanking me for my business. Well you can bet that this won't be the only knife I get from him. I love to cook and he makes some drop dead gorgeous chef knives and cleavers.
Enjoy!
