Boy, I do not want to deliver this one tomorrow.
Blade 4 1/4" 1084, 15N20 and Nickel, Ebony and Whales Tooth handle.
 
not too shabby, old man. not shabby at all! you done good.
 
This knife deserves a comment here as well as on the Gallery forum.

I love it. The damascus is outstanding and the handle looks fantastic and incredible comfortable. What a superb knife!
 
Fitzo, Fitzo, Fitzo, Mike, Mike, Mike: I can tell you are Irish. Your head is as hard as the Blarney Stone, It is MR. OLDMAN to you GAYLICK BIGFOOT CAGON.:D :D :D :D
 
George, I think you really got the whale tooth work down pat! Not easy, taking a new material for most makers, plus high cost to boot, and coming up with a great piece. The blade and furniture looks really good, too. I'd like to jump on the razz bandwagon, too, but you worked too hard on that knife for that. Oh, well, I have to go with the majority, you are a rascal.
 
John; The more the merrier on the old bandwagon. I love razzing everyone and getting it back.

Thanks Guys
 
John: I just noticed that you are 3 years older than I. Sooooooo you are a Mr. Ole Fart too. And you are a Indian, thats is cool. What tribe??? One of my ex-wifes was part Indian they called her Two Bits she was always under a Buck.:D :D :D :D :D
 
That's Bill Buxton in the checked shirt, BTW, and Jim Rice, and my Nanc at my side, in that picture of the press. I'm gonna say "we" built it at Ron "Magnum" Duncan's this last Xmas, though in reality I played grinding-and-cutting boy while Bill and Ron actually did all the important work. Thanks again, guys. I was just outside squishing steel with that puppy a few minutes ago. :) It keeps me in the process since I can't swing a hammer very well anymore. I was making a couple of digging spuds for a neighbor out of 6 feet of 1-1/4" rebar; it's most bizarre working on a piece that big when you're smithy is sized to make damascus billets, and there's a pit bull wants to be laying under yer feet while ya forge. Anyone else have a dog doesn't mind laying in slag a bit?

And thank you for the kind words, MISTER Greybeard Old Fart Biker Scum! Hey, did you see that special on the History Channel about scooters yet? Pretty good show.

BTW, I'm not that big...I'm just fat. 6'2 or so and 285. Gained 130 pounds from medications and only lost half of it so far, I hope to be a lithe 250 or so by the time I get out to New Bedford to deliver IG that sloppy wet kiss I've promised him. Watch out, MR Old Man, yer gonna like it! :D
 
It wouldn't be a good kiss if ya didn't. :D

Hope yer growing a beard for this, though. It's much easier if I can grab yer beard so ya can't get away. Though that'll be a moot point, cuz I know yer eager...;)
