Megalodon 4 with laminated Carbon Fibre scales

[harm]

this is only the 4th Megalodon i've made to date.and with racing stripes.
the customer wanted CF scales,and.since i could not get .25 CF wide enough for this beast,i had to laminate the CF.i used 2 pieces of CF and 2 red fibre liners per side,plus 3 3.2 mm ss pins and 3 large and 1 small thong tube.
it was interesting gluing this "Dagwood handle".
oal is around 17.5 in with a 12 in blade of 8mm thick Bohler K110 hardened to 59/60 HRC.
finish is hand-rubbed.
btw thanks to Mel from Halpern Ti for hooking me up with the CF.
thanks for looking.

Very very impressive.

How much would a toy like that set me back?

Now this is the kind of steak knife I need.

Seriously though - a very very nice knife.
