You're just trying to drive me mad, aren't you? :rolleyes::D

Those are beautiful knives, thanks for the great photos. -- :thumbup::thumbup:

EDIT: The Raphaël Durand folder sure packs the blade into the trough, looks like it hits the ends, don't see too many makers do that.

Just absolutely gorgeous knife, as are the rest.

So good to see Cliff get your photography. Great man and flawless knives. That Hanson knife is also kickin! Same with Eriks knife. Can't really beat that.

Great group of knives Caleb thanks for showing.
 
Great images and great knives. I'm especially fond of the Erik's Piece.
Looks like it may have a little Lurquin "Hurak" influence in the design.
 
Great job on those pictures and I have to agree that Erik makes a hella knife as do all of those Makers. :)
 
Exactly my thoughts Al. That Durand is a beauty.
Wonderful images Caleb. I would say you listed them in order of my favorites. Thanks for sharing

Great pics. Is ‘Boxer’ a photography term?

'Boxer' is a slip joint pattern of Raphael's. If you go to his website gallery, a couple of other pieces are shown.

Thanks for the work on these Caleb. You really make things pop with your photography. :thumbup:

waaaaay too much awesome for one thread
 
Very nice pictures !
And very nice knives.

I have posted a link to the picture of Raphaël's knife on a French Forum. I hope it's okay, otherwise I will remove it.

By the way, if the owner of that knife decides to part with it, I'd be VERY glad to help him with that ;)
