I said that my last sale post a couple days ago was it for a while, but I guess I lied. I had this one on the bench and was so excited to finish it that I ended up doing an all-nighter marathon on it. This is my best work to date. The pattern was originally drawn for a special knife for my fiancé, but I wanted to try the pattern out first before starting hers (expensive materials). I'm so in love with this one that I am probably going to make one for myself, first chance I get (who knows when that will be).

This thing has personality to spare. If you want to be the cool kid at school for this year's annual hunting/hiking/camping outing, here's your ticket. :D

The handle is quite comfortable, even with its ballooned rectangle profile. I gently softened the corners as well. Balance, in hand feel are excellent. I really love this one.

The Desert Ironwood Burl is some of the best I've seen. It shimmers in person, very strong chatoyance. Deep contrasting colors.

Added. I had a note at the top mentioning that I was editing the post in piece by piece. Myself and a couple other makers have been having trouble with losing posts if we attempt to write the entire ad at once. The post is completed now.
 
I've been eye-ing a couple of the knives you have posted, Ian, but this one I have to take.

Pls email me with sheath options.

Best,
Stephen.
 
Thanks!

And thanks for the comments, everyone. I already miss this one and I haven't sent it out yet.

Edit: email sent, Lmk if you didn't receive.
