Looking good brother! Really like that Spalt

Nice work Bill. I like them both, but I really like the top one. As far as lists go, the way things are going,
Chris' list may be as long as yous before long!!

I know Bill, why do think I already have three of his knives. I'm trying to get them while I can. But I haven't forgot
about you. I'm saving up and then I'm gonna get in touch with you when I figure out something that might be
a challenge for you. LOL. I really liked that Larry Withrow forged San Mia steel you used for the warnie, so I've
got the steel in mind. Now for the blade shape and handle material....like I said I'll be in touch!

I have 2 billets awaiting punishment lol, Thanks Wilson
 
BA, great job on them, but that bottom with the maple, well, hell, you know, look at the pictures . . . . ;)
Great job again buddy, absolutely great.
Be safe.
 
The spalted maple PEDC just arrived today. Boy, oh boy..........it does have all the bells and whistles and they show. Lots of time and effort put into this one.

Can't express how fortunate I am to own several of Bill's works. His style of knives truly fit my needs and expectations. That's the bottomline.......

On Saturday I'm expecting the "curly blue maple" to arrive and join the others that I've recently purchased from you.

Can't wait to put them to use, hopefully ALOT of use come Fall. My son and I will likely be volunteering our "dismembering" services just to use these knives!

Once again Bill........thanks for making this all possible.

Best Regards,

Ken

Those are beautiful! I have yet to see an knife of yours I didn't like. I am still loving the one you sold me, though it wasn't a custom order. Just out of curiosity, how much would you charge to do the file work on the one you sent me? You can PM me if you wish on that one. :) That file work is just too damn cool.
