What a gorgeous knife! Every time I think I have seen the best looking knife in my life, someone here seems to post one that tops it.

The craftsmanship and details are just beautiful on this one. And I really like the gently sweep of the blade.

The fact that you ground that sweep without losing the symmetry of the grinds themselves is a real testament to the skill involved.

Excellent work.

Every time you post a knife, I think "He can't possibly top the last one." But you do. Every time. This is great, very nice work.

This is the nicest knife I've ever had the privilege to work with.

Phillip, your work continues to be awesome. Love the DI. Style of knife is not to my taste, but its execution is extraordinary. Had a question, but Rayban answered it (JTW in ricasso).
