I like it. Nice wood and the integral guard looks like it will function well. PM sent

I am not sure which side of the brain is the one that comes up with ideas like this, but which ever it is, Gerry's is very busy! He leaves the followers of his work wondering what he will come up with next! And, I think that 20 minutes must be a new personal best for the sale of one of Gerry's jewels. Not hard to see why though!

Thats an awesome looking knife Drew! Great work you've been doing.

Knife came yesterday, and I am well pleased! The integral guard is very comfortable, the balance is great, and the scales look awesome. It will be coming along when I head up into the white mountains later this summer.
