They like everything big in Texas right? Nathan??? ;) :D

This is going down to the ABS Expo with Angi and I... if you're going to be there, please come by and give it a whirl and bs knives with me (and Angi would be happy to fill you in on dealing with an overly particular ADD knifemaker for a boyfriend! :foot: :p).

Man it feels good to be finishing stuff again. At this rate, I might even finish that integral thread one of these days!!! :eek:....... Nah... prolly not ;)

11.5" long X 2" wide 52100 blade
180ish layer twist damascus fittings (line cut and fluted "ferrule" spacer)
Ironwood BURL handle with dome 416 pin

I know the pics suck... but I'm not good in normal circumstances, let alone when I'm under the gun to finish up another one! ;)

Nice, Mr. Wheeler! I look forward to seeing that one this weekend. Ummm...Mr. Wheeler, do you think in the few minutes we get to talk this weekend that you could show me how to be a real knife maker like you?? :D

You done good, boy. That's a fine knife (though here in Texas, I seen bigger).

Nice etching on the hardware. Subtle; yet compliments the knife overall.

Beautiful job...and you NEED to finish that integral thread

TWO new knives Nick? Whatever you're smoking you need to get more of it :)

This one looks great too (but I like the first one more).
 
Great looking knife. It is sweet as stated above. Is that a scratch on the blade??????









Just messing with the ADD Knifemaker,,,,:D:D
 
I'd say it looks ok.

Still don't think I've ever seen a Nick Wheeler knife I didn't want. This one is exceptional.
