Skillfully shaped raspberry & cream Mookaite blade was knapped by Lyle Moen and securely hafted to an antler handle with a hidden tang and epoxy by Arthela Cummings, who inset the Purpleheart wood oval in the pommel. The custom-designed stand supports the knife with a brass pin embedded in an amethyst-quartz open geode on a Purpleheart wood base. The stand beautifully complements the knife and together they make a superb display. Blade alone is 3-1/4” Knife length is 8” over the curve Stand is 6-1/4” long, 2-7/8” wide, 2-3/8” high. The incredible color in this piece is natural. The Mookaite stone is from Australia and the Purpleheart wood is from South America.
