Aktor Full Integral - Oak leaves

The art of engraving

This elaborate and magnificent knife "Aktor Full Integral" was engraved by hand by Armin Bundschuh. Especially notable is the very delicate ornamentation of oak leaves in the background. The bolsters and pommel are adorned by sculpted grooves with raised gold inlays. The spine of the blade features multiple inlay elements made from yellow and green gold.

The top part of the hand guard was engraved in a symmetrical triangular pattern, which additionally also provides some slip resistance.

The blade, using a full integral construction method, is made from Böhler N690 steel and the natural handle is made from the antlers of a stag. The rivets were textured on the surface to harmonize with the gold inlays.
