First stock removal knives in collection

[Joss]

In the last few weeks I've added the first 2 unforged knives to my collection:

Bought at Blade, a large Evolution folder by JW Smith (blade is 3 3/4"):

(Picture stolen from - but not hotlinked to - True North Knives)

Just got from True North a small Model 2 framelock by Mike Obenauf (blade is just 3"):

Amazing fit & finish on those...

Joss, you got two beautiful knives. I like a lot the Mike Obenauf Model 2. It is the type of folder that "rings my bell"

Merely outstanding. Just remember Michelangelo used the stock removal method to create the Pieta.

I'll repeat it again. I have NEVER seen a J.W. Smith knife that I did not like!

The Obenauf is super sweet too.
