I held this khuk in John's apartment. It was a memorable experience. Spiral is right.

Absolutely right. Perfection in steel.

Me too!
it is a fantastic piece and one i know john thought highly of. it has all the asthetics i look for in a piece, and any gilt adornment would have ruined it. well done!

Spiral,
The more I look at it, the more I like it. The lines and curves look like they where cut yesterday. It is truely and awesome piece and very worthy of the center piece of any collection, even a museum.
