Wow, I think that is the best looking carving knife I have ever seen. :thumbup:
 
Outstanding carving knife Spencer. Beautiful is more like it. :thumbup::thumbup:
You do it all.
 
Beautiful is an understatement!! The hand rubbed finish is awsom! Design elegant but strong... :thumbup::thumbup: I would love to cut into a big venison roast with it. Wish I had one:D

I cannot even remotely follow what you are saying what so ever, if anyone could please enlighten me. That has got to be one of the most bizzaro response's ever

Kevin thats one of the greatest compliments ever, in my short time building knives 2.5 years I will not limit myself to building one thing or go down as a tactical, forger,stock removal maker. To me its about the adventure of building knives, its that thrill of a new design, method, finish, material that winds my clock. Wait till you see whats next, if all goes well and I spend the time that has been set up with a very old maker, one that spent some time in the loveless shop, one of the early members of the guild, a maker that builds a certain style of folder that has really caught my fancy.

I begin this tutelage in the second week of January for 5 days, this will also be the first time I will receive mentor-ship other than the short hours I spent with Mike lovett. To say the least I am very excited it will expand my customer base 10 fold.

Thanks those 4 words are music to my ears

Yes it is chisel ground very thin but not so thin that it will fold when in contact with bone.

I have sold 7 3 piece sets in the last year and folks have come to enjoy them. Flat grinding is not my strong suit but i am practicing

No, sorry, it looks good. but i'd end up on the wrong end of that thing. too much point for the novice such as myself, that's all. Ouch!

I pulled my wife aside yesterday and told her "If you were wanting to get a special gift for the most special man in your life, something like this would be a great thing to consider."

Smart ass that she is, she said "OH... HE doesn't like cooking and knives and such like you."
Bitch!! But it gave me a great laugh!!!
 
Nice looking knife. A lot prettier than most carvers. I was wondering why the bolts/pins on the handle are recessed?
