Beautiful!
 
Two guys from Georgia?
Forget about the two. One of them will not be showing up and the other will take 'em both. :D
 
I finally finished my fifth JS Test Knife about a week ago!

This is the first Spear Point blade I've made. The 9" blade is forged from 5160. The handle is of Amber Dyed Sambar Stag. (this was also the first time I've used stag on a Bowie handle) The fittings are German Silver with Rope Pattern File work. The blade has a 1500 grit finish on it. This was the first time I've done a finish like this on a blade and I like it so much that I think I'll have to do it like this a lot more.

I would like to thank my brother Caleb for the great picture!

Here's a couple more JR Cook will be bringing to Atlanta.

Bayou hunter/ Drop point.
This hunter has a 5" blade with rope file work on the spine. The fittings are stainless steel. The pins are domed stainless steel. Great stag:

Here's a beautiful "Matched Set" of Hunters Jerry is finishing up. Kind of shows the progression of the engraving/inlay. The side by side photos are also interesting in that they depict the differences between Jerry's Sendero and Gamemaster hunter models. The blades are a laddered "W" pattern and just a tad under 5". The handles are of course amber sambar stag. Scroll engraving with 24k gold inlay.
Chuck Ward will shoot these after Jerry completes the finishing touches.

Here's another knife for the show. This is my first subhilt, and it was challenging but fun to build. In order to get everything to flow like this, the knife has to be worked as a unit at times and then partially disassembled and worked in sections at other times. Kinda fun once you get in the groove.

Blade is 416 stainless over 52100 laminate, double ground and very sharp everywhere but the ricasso. The fittings are firestorm damascus with polished stainless spacers and a desert ironwood handle with a carved butt. The sheath is tooled with a chevron style basketweave pattern. The blade is 7.25" and the knfie is 12.25" overall.
