Tim, I really like that shot. Two gorgeous knives but the white out really sets them off. Well done buddy :thumbup:

Haha thanks Brett :) I'm having fun editing my photos to create a very clean image of just the knives.
 
Ive really enjoyed your editing. ;) The half off the table edge is a great effect. Of course, the knives you've been posting lately would look great now matter the shot. :thumbup:
 
A bump for this thread. Full WIP photos Bret sent Vince of a fantastic customer build in Westinghouse micarta with bolsters.
Beautiful dogleg for certain.

That is out of sight Tim. If a knife can be sexy, that one is. Thanks for posting, Alan
 
Thank You Tim for posting those :thumbup:. I apologize for not getting around to it. That knife is a very nice one,for sure. Heck,I think you'll All agree,most all knives are.

Anytime Vince, and I completely agree :) Especially Bret's!
 
So basically a guy in the State of AL is gonna open up a box ,like a kid on Christmas morning. I've come to the conclusion that's a big part of this knife affliction :thumbup:

That dogleg is even nicer in person! Thanks Vince and Bret!
 
So, here it is... The Bret Dowell Zulu Spear, 4" closed, M4 etched blade and spring. Handles are Burlap Micarta. This thing is ground thin and sharp. It's going to make a great EDC.

Congrats Aaron (and Tim...). ;)

CP-M4 is a fantastic steel.

Haha I was owner of it for one day. Maybe it'll come back ;)

Here's another one of Bret's older builds I picked up recently and it is fantastic.
There's a difference in action compared to the mill relief pieces but I love these "older" builds on washers for their extremely smooth walk and talk/somewhat softer pull.
Beautiful ebony wood covers, fluted bolsters and a unique coke bottle clip that is a nice departure from all the "trapper style" clips I have in my collection with more belly.

Coke Bottle Prototype no. 0
-3 5/8" closed
