Congrats :thumbsup:
Thats very impressive, simple and elegant, looks great!
The idea of that handle is fantastic, later it can be straitened to elongate the blade if so desired....imagine :)
Cheers

The only ones I use are the plain DT Ladder, micarta CN raindrop and the box elder CN raindrop. The others are boxed up waiting to go to a new home. I also have a DT raindrop waiting to be sent off. I’ll have to find an old picture of it around here. The striped platan raindrop is now the box elder raindrop. Had the inlays warp on me and they warrantied it, I chose to replace it with box elder.

I currently have three. The first is a William Henry Spearpoint Noble with a 3.06” Nichols “Intepid” Damascus blade. LE of 250:

This next one is an MKM Viper Timavo with a 2.875” damasteel blade. For the life of me, I can’t recall the name of the pattern. LE of 100:

I honestly don’t carry these all too often, but I love each one. The WH was intended to be my “formal” piece, but with what’s been going on I think I’ve only carried it twice; both extremely rare occasions where I’ve had reason to wear a suit or jacket.

The MKM and Pro-Tech I may toss in my pocket for a quick run to the store or for a small group outing. If there’s a way to drop, ding, scratch or otherwise mar a knife, I’ll inevitably find it....so for know, I’m content restricting these to not much more than “couch carry” duties, lol.
