Bruce,
Fantasic looking job on a tough knife to make. Congratulations.

Bruce - excellent work. The sheath looks outstanding, and the pins are arranged very nicely as well.

The "Price style" dagger is one of the classiest fixed blade designs out there. Personally, I like to see these done with some more embellishments. Having seen some examples of your filework on other knives, I think a little flair around the guard would work well. Just a thought...

Beautiful overall package, Bruce.
