" Golden Elaho "
Price: 2 400 USD

The name " Golden Elaho " comes from the name of one of my favoured trout rivers in beautiful mountains of British Columbia, Canada.

This knife is a heavy, medium large , very well balanced. Good care was taken to draw out the old spirits of the 40 000 years old Siberian Mammoth ivory.

The final result is a stunning ancient looking knife loaded with solid gold.

Leather sheath, custom manufactured by hand is waiting for you to slide the "Golden Elaho" inside of it and feel free and wild again.

Knife comes in custom made high quality wooden box.
