Bob always has a tendency to turn out exquisite pieces of pointy steel.. He has done 7 for me so far and each one I get from him sets me back in my chair with amazement as to the craftsmanship

I had one of these, a simpler version, and I still have some regret for passing it along. Such a cool knife
