Here is the Shiva Ki 8 inch spirit blade that I got from STeven (boy I miss him around here) that I re etched. Paul did a shark skin sheath with one of the damascus studs and I really like the way it came out. Thanks for looking

jp....lookin sweet....could you post some comments on the shiva ki....i've always wondered what his knives were like in person...ryan
 
Hey, you're supposed to put prices on those - oops, wrong forum.

I'd love to try out that shiva ki. Thanks for the pics & Nice knives!
 
Ryan the Ki is rough but very sharp and there are alot of things I really like about it. First you do not have to be afraid to use it because the rough finish of the blade the dean is the exactly the oposite the finish on the blade is so fine it will show use. The Ki has a great handle and cuts very well and feels very good in the hand. One thing I do like is that the Ki takes down. When I got the knife I took it apart and re etched the blade. No bullshit about an hour after I took the pics I was putting a trampoline together for my kids and was wearing the KI I had to take it off set it on a table and it feel off and mared the handle well I did not like the high gloss finish on it anyway so I took it down and sanded it clean filled all the poors and gave it a satin finish it is sitting on my bench drying right now. the point is I can take this knife apart and clean it up or refinish as necessary. In a user blade this is a really nice feature and reminds me of my beloved swords. All in all I really like the Ki and am waiting for one of his fighter bowie's that should be here any day. Thanks for the kind words
 
Two great and great looking knives.
Man,did those studs come out nice and work so well with those classy sheaths.
Two winners there.
