An Award to share.........

[Karl B. Andersen]

..........from another web site.
The Knife Dogs had their annual Member's Choice Awards and I won the "Best Non-Tactical Fixed Blade."
Nice to be chosen by one's peers.
Now when I leave the shop at the end of the day, this is the last thing I'll see:

Congratulation Karl. As others said, well deserved!

On a side note, the award thing is a cool idea. Would be nice to have something like this over here.

I've got to tell ya', the competition was pretty stiff on this one - I'm amazed I won.
I figure the only thing that boosted my exposure on this knife was that I did a rather extensive WIP on making the knife.
When you have a little time to waste, it can be seen here:
