I don't know if this is the right place to post this, so please move it if needed. I teach 8th grade special education in New York. A man I work with has a daughter that was just diagnosed with lymphoma. She is having a benefit on January 19th. I decided to make a knife for the auction that will be held at the benefit. As a side note, I decided to document it as much as possible and post it as I went along. It took more pages than I expected, I ended up at 6 pages on my website. To keep from having to re type it all here, I will provide a link to what I have done.

Here it is.

If you go to my website under tutorials, just click on Syd's knife.

Hope you like it.
 
Beautiful knife and sheath, and a wonderful WIP - I enjoyed going through the work with you.

Your leather work is very nice! Love the sewing machine!

I hope that knife sells for a great price, it is surely a beauty!

Good luck to Syd!

That is an awesome knife and sheath for a great cause. I hope it brings in a very good price for her. Its also very nice to see a WIP that is that in-depth and detailed, really shows people who may not understand, what really goes into a custom knife.
 
Matt that is an awesome knife for a great cause. Really liked the WIP. Totally jealous of your sewing machine. Thanks for sharing.
 
Matt your knives are incredible. What an awesome gift to help the benefit.
 
Great job and what a wonderful tutorial. I learned a lot. THANKS!

Thanks, just found out today that through prayers and her chemo the mass has shrunk from the size of a baseball to the size of a golfball.
 
I just read through your WIP Matt... very cool project for a great cause. :thumbup:
Glad to hear that the chemo seems to be making progress. Continued prayers headed Syd's way.
