Intro

Erebos’, showcasing a custom “Stardust” Damascus Steel flowing across the blade and plated in 24k gold, with a handle hand-carved to create an otherworldly aura featuring an array of 24k gold embellishments to mirror that of an ancient relic of history… Adorned with Mother Of Pearl, is inspired by the mysteries of our universe; in ancient Greek philosophy, darkness was considered a part of existence that contrasted with light and structure. The Greeks viewed light and darkness as dual entities that needed to balance each other, hence this blade contrasts the stark 24k gold plated meteorite iron over a deep, dark carbon steel.

The envision was to craft a piece that reflects the idea of what life on other planet’s may look like, taking reflection of the otherworldly nature of the materials through fruition of the final piece in an “alien-like” design. Nicely weighted and comfortable in the hand; is a piece not only built for both display, but also for when a hardened and sharp slicing edge may come in handy.



The Meteorite

The blade is crafted with the 4.5 billion year-old meteor, the Muonionalusta, discovered in 1906 near the border of Sweden and Finland by a group of children who found what they described as an unusual rock… Later it was studied to have traveled through the solar system for over 4.56 billion years before striking Earth nearly one million years ago. It was found to be one of the oldest meteorites ever recorded, with a crystalline structure consisting of iron and nickel formed over millions of years; that truly sets it apart from many iron meteorite species.

Included is a signed Certificate Of Authenticity (COA) and custom-forged stand for displaying of the piece.
