- indeed, Charles.........they have a beautiful completeness about their shape and design, and, with yours in particular, I love the yin-yan of the shiny precise steel blade with the haphazard yet warm nature of the stag

Pretty much that. It was a surprise find at a local knife show.

Back to the top with my Dogleg Prototype
I received this knife in 2010 at Blade in Atlanta. Built either that year or 2009, not sure. First picture is right after I got it and the other 2 taken today.
A little darker now, still one of my favorites.

I forgot that I got on Bret list until he reached out to me last week. This is what I went with and am thrilled with it.
