That looks like a beauty!

That would need a tuxedo/monkey suit to be the "dress" to go with that knife.

Very classy, indeed.
 
Good. I love the sheath and blade. Very well done appearance to draw attention to it, without it being to over the top.

Not bad, but not for me. The guard is over worked. It would have been a little dressier to me if it wasn't. For me, a plain but fancy works. Something like Mokume if you can make/find it. And, the handle is almost too dark for me. But it's just me. :D

Overall, I really like that knife. I would love to own something that nice.
 
Why, when I look at this knife, do I suddenly think of that absolute goddess of a soccer player that I never got up the nerve to ask out?...

Stunning :thumbup:
 
Another fine looking piece,

I only wish your pictures were higher res. Perhaps you're saving bandwidth, but it would be nice to see the blades better. Have a goody.
 
I would have changed some things about the knife had I have ordered it.But had I have changed the knife it would have been a shame. It adds up to as good as it gets.Just right.:thumbup:

I don't know, that is weird. :) (that a knife reminds you of a hot girl = too much time spent thinking about knives, that there was a hot girl you wanted and did not ask her out :thumbdn: but I have made that mistake once too)


I love that knife. Lots of file work on the spine and guard. Great attention to detail. The only thing that caught my eye for a second was that the detail piece on the end of the handle was not centered-ish. And I am assuming that that is because it was centered over the tang end?

very nice.

For the sheath, I prefer a different finish. Brown or tan is great, lighter or darker, but the streaked finish is not as appealing to my eye. But then, I love sheaths with just a tan hot oil/beezwax finish.
 
Exceptional work on the blade and those scales:thumbup:

I do think the guard should be left plain as this contrasts better with the blade's Damascus.

Fine worked sheath there, looking forward to your smaller knives especially:D
 
...they only bite you if they love you. ;)

God I keep coming back to look at this one............
