This one Mike just finished for me, ladder pattern blade, W pattern guard, buttcap, and sheath inlay, silver spacer, fossil walrus ivory handle. This is the first I have seen of the sheath and I love it, exactly as I wanted. Looking foward to having both in hand. Thanks to Mike, Larry, and Jim, it is a thing of beauty when such fine artists come together.

I like it alot.
Handle looks ergonomically pleasing, well executed damascus, proportion and blade profile very nice.

Sheath, especially the damascus insert really looks good.

That's a very attractive knife, and the damascus insert in the sheath really gives that a lift.

Terrific knife.

You can just watch the threads here in the C&H forum at BF from month to month as time goes by and see Mike's skills growing and his artistic talent blossoming. That is cool.

Coop. You are the master.

^^^ I am only the messenger. Mike and Larry were Masters.

Mike's flats on the handle just scream quality and attention. As does everything else.

Thanks. I chose VERY quickly on this background, and just went with it. I think it has the drama the knife is suited for, and the ivory adds the warmth it sustains.

Props on this one. Kris, I'm glad to be the first to show you the sheath. It was CRAZY clean!
