Sorry for the crappy pic, but many of you will appreciate this.



The black maple handled fighter and Grasslands Bowie are both from 2005., 3 laminated blades, 2 monosteel, 1 damascus....all amazing.

Here are some of Burt's beauty shots:




You can see a small hunter in this pic, I just didn't feel like pulling it out for the photo yesterday.



This is the CLI1, I Garssonized the handle, which you can more or less see in the pic. Burt really wants me to stop doing that.



Best Regards,

All really cool knives. I must say...I love that subhilt!!! And, in fact, I love that badboy to the subhilt's left. Damn fine knives!
 
I definitely appreciate it - thanks for the peek. I had not seen that damascus guardless piece before. That is a terrific group.

Nice knives. That integral on the right looks like a great carry knife. Also love that large chopper.
 
Great looking line-up Steven

I realy like the second from the right.

Thanks for letting us have a look.

Take care

Nice collection of Fosters there. I like the hamon on that little integral.
 
All Fantastic. Congrats my friend


The sub hilt was almost mine I wish it was.:D

I like them all. However, your pic begs the question--which are users???

None.

The users are for guys like Hans, although I did offer to let him chop through a 2"x 4" at Josh's show with the Grasslands Bowie.

I'm collecting and showcasing a decade of Foster cutlery when it is complete ...at some point I hope that Burt and I can give a talk around this body of work.

Best Regards,

NICE collection STeven. Is the subhilt engraved? Sort of looks like it but can't tell for sure.

I not only appreciate the great selection and diversity of Burt's work, I appreciate that you would show us. I'm lovin' his handle pockets.

And, believe it, I also appreciate crappy pics. They are better than nuthin' and make me look good. :) :eek: ;)

Steven, you have a subhilt that doesn't follow the Loveless pattern. What the heck is going on?

It didn't sell at Blade....it's an awesome knife....even classicist dictators of style have moments of weakness.:D
