Hello guys, I just wanted to share a few pics of a set of knives we have been working on. These are made from our damascus "REVERB" pattern.. With Ironwood burl handles and copper hardware and tang liners. These still need a few finishing touches, and the finished edges added. Then a leather pouch/case and they will be ready for delivery. :D

As always, Thank you for looking. Any comments or critiques are welcomed.

Please let me know if the pics work, Im still figuring this uploading thing out.. :) Thanks

Beautiful work, Randy! As far as critiques go I know a lot of people prefer a large flat section of blade, but I think the large chef knife blade could use a bit more gradual curve starting the last 1/3 of the length until it reaches the tip.
 
Thanks Sir.. I am from the same school and have always used knives with more sweep to the tip.. We used the heck out of this knife last weekend at my Hammer in/Get together.. Heres a little video clip of the knife in action! [video=youtube;RHZ3j0251B0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=RHZ3j0251B0[/video]
These were commissioned, and I did my best to make them to my customers specs.. He likes that long flat. and a small belly.. :)
 
Heres a few more pics of the leather case that came with this set. :)

I'm so very jealous. I normally wouldn't admit that but the case pushed me over the edge.
