Great looking knives. The work on the butt of the handles really adds a nice touch. What kind of steel are they?
 
Those are very nice. Do you have any pics of the handle/spine shot? It looks like you've done some contouring, but I can't quite tell f/the pics.

Any hamon on that L6?

These are very nice. I like the grind, the swedge, the detailing and shape of the handle, the choice of materials, and most definitely, the sheath. I checked out your website. I think these are the nicest blades on your gallery.

Great job on the handle, and a superb sheath set as well.

If I had the money, I'd be picking one of these up. I am going to Vegas tomorrow (for work...but some play as well), so if I'm lucky and my wife lets me, I know where I'll be putting my winnings!

Nice work Bob. The sheath really makes a nice package.
Bob does some good work when he is not at his regular job.
