Each case is machined from solid stock, grade 2 titanium, and engraved in the Western single-point style. The chiseled scrollwork is then dovetailed with a technique known as “back-cutting”. 24K gold wire is pounded into the grooves with classic inlay relief. The case is finished by hand with emory and cloth polished. The case is carefully torched until it takes on the vintage gun-blue color, then quenched in an oil bath for the final finish.
