CURATOR'S NOTE
Tiger Tooth is strongest when you read it as a composition rather than a colour sample. The key is the tension between Gold and Yellow: one attracts the eye, the other gives the polished anodized metal room to register. The result feels ornamental and deliberate: recognisable at a glance, but detailed enough to reward a closer look.
DETAILS / CLOSE-UP
VISUAL ANCHOR
The blade face carry the strongest Gold passage in Tiger Tooth. On the ★ Nomad Knife, that concentration gives the finish a clear centre of gravity before the eye moves outward.
COLOUR TRANSITION
Along the spine and cutting edge, Yellow creates the second layer of the composition. It breaks the Gold mass without weakening the finish's overall identity. On this ★ Nomad Knife, that role is specific to Tiger Tooth.
HARDWARE CONTRAST
The handle and pommel act as a visual release point: Black and exposed material reduce the density of Tiger Tooth and sharpen the boundary between finish and hardware. On this ★ Nomad Knife, that role is specific to Tiger Tooth.
