Thats nice Bill, i really like that blade shape it looks real versatile.
Nice package all around, i have to get one of your damascus blades soon.
I need a damascus knife...or want want want a damascus knife.:eek:;):D
 
You're killin' me. You knew what that light colored (almost ivoryish) spalted would do to me......didn't you? Well, almost, not quite, but darn close, not that far off, probably could work.........hmmmmmmmmmm.

I'M OUT!!..............LOL

Very nice Bill.

Something about a kid in a candy store as well as something about eating potato chips.......................LOL.

This was the WORST forum that I could have ever landed on!!!! I blame VMC3 for having sold me another drop point earlier on from another site..............his fault.

But yeah.....this was a must have knife. I didn't own a damascus until now and never any blades over 3 1/4in. I guess that I'm starting to embrace this "diversity" thing......thanks a bunch, Obama.......LOL.
 
Man, that spalt is killer! It might be better than Walnut...maybe.
 
Thanks alot Bill!!! That is killer.....really. You are one talented guy, you really are. And a top notch camerman as well.........

I can't wait till this one arrives........'course, I'm that way about all your knives!! This one, however.........pretty special.

Thanks for doing the extra spine work, Bill. I appreciate it a bunch.

Let me see.............at this rate of one per week, with 52 weeks in a year.....yep!.....I'll have 52 Backwoods knives come this time next year!!

Back away from the 'puter.....don't look back.....go have yourself a beverage.....cancel that damn PayPal.......be super nice to momma (just in case).......thank God for what you already have. See!! I'm cured.......................LOL.

This knife arrived today. "Pure Suckiness". It sucks just like the 4 others. Sucky scales, sucky pins, sucky damascus blade, sucky sheath, sucky edge sharpness and worst of all.....the suckiest of spine work.............GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZ!! When is he finally gonna learn!!! He should either start listening and watching Chris more or just give this knife making stuff up and go into something like "Public Relations" or "Human Resources", which I just know he'd enjoy and succeed at.....damn!!!

But, I'm gonna keep this sucky knife 'cuz I paid for it already and I don't wanna hurt Bill's feelers 'cuz you know how sensitive he is. He's probably spent the $50 already, anyhow...............

My son's damascus arrives in a couple of days and it'll be sucky too. I'll just probably leave it packaged and not even look at it, give it to my son at Xmas along with a new Gerber "Gator" and tell him he has his pick of the 2. Might as well save the bubble wrap for the return trip...........

I wonder if Bill gives refunds............?

I must admit, this one is a bit less sucky than most........it does go to show that Bill is at least improving or trying much harder...........I'll give him that.

Yeah...yeah....thanks a ton Bill........:yawn: You really knocked it outta the park this time............:barf:












Excellent Bill.......just excellent!! Thanks.......:thumbup:

"Don't tase me bro" ..............:D:D
