The problem with waiting so long to see them is that now all I want to do is show them off - sorry for this, but heres two more that were waiting for me when I arrived back in the UK! Having both originated from Australia, with one going via the States, they had travelled further than I had to get there!

9 3/4 inch Handforged blade in 5160, with a satin finish.

Both are VERY nice! I especially like the matching oak scabbard on the Brodizack model, quite elegant.
 
Don't apologize - keep those pics coming! Those are two terrific knives. Filicietti really turns out a nice bowie. And I like the look of that Brodziac as well. It seems every knife of his has some outstanding wood for the handle and this one has it for the scabbard as well. Cool. :cool:

Keith - Sheath is stored safely, and your right, its a work of art in its own right. Steve Filicietti really does deliver a fantastic piece in every respect.

Love that Fillicietti. In fact, I don't think I have ever seen a Fillicietti that I didn't like.

Ditto!
 
Good get on the Filicietti Bowie. That long clip makes it look almost like an ST24 Moran Fighter. Steve also makes some of the most gorgeous sheaths around - any pics ?

Nice Brodziak too. David gets just an amazing finish on his handles. At one of the last local knife shows in Oz, he made the display box to match. I can tell you his boxes are as good as his knives.

Good to see some other Aussie knife exposure here. Jason.
