thanks guys
modeled in maya and max, using polys. Took some time to setup studio lights and, I ended up placing one more or less sharp light to highlite those edges, but I think there is a flaw in my model, that is the edges are so sharp they dont pick up much highlites. Material is maxwell metal cobalt with roughness of 0.3/0.3
Here is the real version of this knife. Note that there are many many versions of this knife so its not specific.

nice work Dmitry,

...did you model that knurl on the tightener? ...looks good.

[morbid angel]

Some of the form of the original knife was lost in the 3d translation, some important features which I think make that knife unique were lost. But nice, simple, clean render.

could you specify which forms where lost?

ivox3 - yes
