These went out this AM to two customers. They came out pretty. Thought you might like a peek.

Yeah, that Nessie is spectacular. Terrific handle work, and a nice finish on the blade. I love how your interpretation of this design flows.

Nice stuff!

Those look great Andy. I had a visitor to my shop and he brought two of your knives to show me and they were awesome knives and very well made.
 
Everytime I see one of your knives I'm struck by the lanyard tube that you use. It really makes your knives immediately recognizable. Do you make it yourself or order it? To me it looks like a ring of material with a tube outside and inside of it. Is that what it is or is it a thick ring with coloring?

As ever your knives are beautiful

Awesome work Andy, that Nessie is definitely more my kinda knife but both look amazing !!!!
 
Suh-weet. What is the wood on that Woodsman? Wenge? The grain looks 3D. Absolutely gorgeous.

The Nessie has Ironwood burl, and the Woodsman has stabalized Black Palm.

You got it. Its a tube in a SS tube with an SS tube inside of it. The tubes are garolite (industrial term for micarta) and/or polyurethane tubing.

Agreed - and coming from Brian, who does SWEET work himself, that is a compliment better than I could give.

I love the more rustic look. I think Rick rubbed off on you in Vegas...


Um... ewww.....
