Thanks everyone, even you STeven! I do enjoy making those sub hilts and I'm tickled that one has found its way into Roger's collection. I wish I'd been able to actually hold the sheath though, but I expect there will be other knives with Paul's leather work.
Roger, I'm looking forward to finally meeting you at Blade. Enjoy your knife.
And thanks, Les. I'm encouraged to know that I'm coming along nicely, and my self confidence is growing now that we've worked together on a few knives. It's only taken 21 years!
Thanks again, I appreciate the comments! And thanks, Roger, for posting the pictures.
