Another Great Job.

I wouldn't mind seeing this knife from a few different angles, Dion. From what I can see it is pretty spectacular. That blade looks to have a superb grind. That is a very interesting use of a circuit board.

Edited because I can't 'pell.
 
Simply WILD! I really don't know how you do it, but anything I have seen posted of your work just blows my mind. While not always right up my alley, the level of design and workmanship still has me in awe. Excellent. :cool:
 
Very cool! I always like to look at your work, but this one was even more unique than usual. The blade profile looks really sweet and recycling that mobo, now that's genius. :) Finally a good use for old computers.

Now if you could actually embed an old pentium in a knife (ok, it'd have to be a *big* knive) - you'd have made the first knife w/ a CPU. ;) ;)
 
Shouldn't you have one of those "INTEL INSIDE" stickers on that baby?

Beautiful!!!

That is a fine looking piece of work!

I like the combination of materials you used.

Thanks for the look.
 
I have been working in the IT industry for 10 years and this is the coolest use for old computer parts I have ever seen. I have built sculptures and all sorts of other weird stuff from them but this is very cool and unique.
