Fan Knife

Knife disguised as common fan. Concealed blued 5½'' Kozuka blade in carved "fan" sheath.

The grip and sheath are cut from a single piece of tulipwood.

Sterling silver ladybugs adorn each side panel, with ivory "rivets" and sheath mouth. Side panels and grip are stained natural, while the fan portion is stained red to simulate the fabric, and painted with interrupted caligraphy characters to further enhance the effect.

Overall dimensions are 1'' to 1½'' wide x 11½'' long.

    Architecture and award-winning museum-quality custom handmade knives, edged weapons, powder horns, tomahawks, war clubs, jewelry, metal sculpture, cribbage boards, flint and obsidian knives, Japanese swords, menorahs, and more from Tucson, Arizona artist and architect Larry Gotkin.
