I apolgize if this one has already been done! Show them if you got them Baby Sunfish, Elehpant Toenail, Wildcat Drillers etc. since I believe believe they're related(or some what related). I'm really fond of the Baby Sunfish as it really fills the hand in such a compact package and gives me two of my favorite user blades the spear blade and pen blade!

No apologies, I have a desire to grab some of these myself.
 
I like them too for my art work as they present such a large "canvas" for the stone to be displayed on. The problen is they are so spendy to buy... :D

This one is not really wood as one would expect. It is fully agatized fossil petrified wood.

This one is Turtella, agatized fossilized seashells. This Turtella is from Utah and dates back to when dinosaurs roamed the earth. It is very tricky to cut and get multiple shells in a cross section.
 
Peter, I really like that sunfish! :thumbup:What's the closed length? The blades are ATS-34 right?

Yes, the blades are ATS-34 marked on the master blade. The closed length is 3 5/8" which is perfect for me! I forgot about the newer model #26 GEC Sleeveboard! Anybody have one and if so pictures would be appreciated? It's a little smaller then what I'm used to, but they look awfully nice too my eyes:)!
 
I've been carrying a Queen Canoe around (my first knife in this pattern) and have been growing quite fond of the way it feels in hand and pocket. Because its very similar to sunfish and toenail patterns in flatness, I can actually imagine how these must feel. I will have to investigate these a little more;)
 
I forgot to mention that after I made the trade for this knife the dealer was wipping down the knife and blades, and then the pen blade cut him:eek:. That's the first time I've seen that when making a purchase or trade! I felt bad for him but I new it was already sharp!
