Seahorse
I thought I would dig out a 2008 seahorse I had stashed away and sell it. I got it out and coonfingered it thoroughly and "No way I am going to sell this YET!" My notes when I bought it: Raindrop Damascus genuine stag handle Seahorse whittler. Devin Thomas' pattern-welded 1075/nickel steel blade. “The raindrop that we have provided for Case the last 3 years is a carbon steel. It is 1075/nickel mix. 1075 is a spring steel. The nickel content is only to add color to the blade and is about 5% of the total weight. Case has decided to use this because it is easy to blank and the cost is reasonable. -Rob Thomas.”

Re: Seahorse
Cal, I’m not a fan of the Seahorse whittler pattern, but I could learn to like that one! In fact I already have. I can see why you changed your mind.

I almost broke my jaw on the floor when I saw that knife. Definitely a keeper!

I often use the word gorgeous to describe a knife but I'm not sure I know a word to describe that one.

Re: Seahorse
Cal, my daughter gave me one of those for Christmas 2011. I wouldn't let it go for all the tea in China. It was and is one of the top ten shining stars of my accumulation. (probably more like top 5)

Re: Seahorse
They are pretty and just good knives; I copied some images of someone else's knife because the images were so nice:
