Also first knife with "corby bolts", instead of what I had been using.

Specs:

Blade length: 10.5"

Total length: 16"

Blade thickness: 1/4"

Handle material: curly koa, supplied by the customer

Full, tapered tang.

Thanks for looking!
 
AWSOME!!! Thats what I am talking about!! A big beautiful recurve. Bet it sells fast!!.
 
Nice scales, and the bolts look good.

Like everyone else, i LOVE the curves on this one the most...
 
Stunning lines in a full bodied kind of way! Love the curves.

I'll bet that it's a nice handful too.
 
Great looking knife yet again Phillip!!!

BTW, I noticed your serial #s are nice and even and look great. :D :thumbup:
 
whoah! Thats a cool upper grind. NICE AND WIDE:thumbup:
 
A slick knife as always Phillip :thumbup:
And I guess I should have one curly koa handled knife :thumbup:
Your numbering looks sharp and beautiful :cool:
Thanks for showing it ;)
 
Damn, Phillip - that's gorgeous! I must admit, I don't love the choice of steels, but the execution of that knife is spot-on. I'm kind of stunned this is your first venture with this wood, considering how many knives we've seen from you. Great work!
 
Thanks, guys, and gals, for the kind comments! Have a great weekend!
