Have received it and it is a utility knife in form of a golok and the blade is laminated. But I only have removed the active rust and have decided to let the blade dark like this. Maybe by time the handle will get a new ferrule from brass.

Very good piece, Detlef! Good work: I knew there were some nice laminations hiding...
 Interesting to see that the enlarged tip was planned for and not just forged out from uniform stock. BTW, what is the blade's thickness? Regards, Kai |

 I've known it as well, the lamination was visible despite the hard corrosion, one reason to clean the blade.It's a very massive knife, it's 9 mm thick at the base and still 3 mm near the tip of the blade. Regards, Detlef |
