I do not know the exact history of this one but it is an unfinished damasteel Tesoro that made it's way out of Santa Fe Stoneworks. The stone is still in it's natural finish on the inlays, there is no clip, and there are some workshop scratches on the ti.
This is the second version of the original Santa Fe Stoneworks button lock knife, the “Tesoro”. This model has a Titanium body weighing only 2.3 oz. These Tesoro models feature an Odin Heim Damasteel blade. Damasteel is a forged one-of-a-kind Damascus made in Sweden. It is best known for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, superior edge sharpness and cutting ability. It is also known as the best overall stainless Damascus-patterned steel resulting in a homogenous product. This knife is designed and made with full attention to detail, fit and form.
The Italian word for beautiful or treasured is “Tesoro”. We hope you will enjoy your “Dama-Tesoro”.
