Josef Rusňák
Ghost rider - fixed blade

This knife fuses the wild freedom of motorcycle culture with mythological elements. 

​

This perfectly embodies Rusňák's creative philosophy: drawing inspiration from the surrounding culture and materializing a story or legend into a work of art through a long and meticulous handmade process.

​

The blade is made from ATS-34 stainless steel and given a mirror polish, it contrasts with the rich textures of the handle.

​

The most direct thematic element on the blade is the engraving of a skull moving at high speed, with skeletal trails streaming behind it.

​

The guard section is made from Damasteel, whose dark, textured surface resembles the weathered metal cowling or engine block of a motorcycle.

​

Meanwhile, the 18K gold granules dotted across the guard are brilliantly interpreted as the fiery tire burns left on the asphalt during a burnout.

​

The two sterling silver curves extending from the "cowling" symbolize the motorcycle's handlebars.

​

The main handle is carved from a solid piece of mammoth ivory into the shape of an exquisite wing.

​

Inside the metal pommel at the end of the handle, a spread-winged eagle is carved, symbolizing the untamed spirit and sharp vision of the rider.
