Thanks for looking Folks,

I've made the switch from tattooing to full time knife maker...

Here are few work in progress pics of my first folding knife.
I still need to get a logo made... I call it The Navigator.

That's what I was going to say. Lines look great. That's a hellofa job for your first folder.
 
I love how clean it is. Spearpoints with swedges are the next best thing to home baked bread! I hope I see another Ray Laconico being birthed.

Thanks guys. I've been working as a full time tattooer since 1993. I became good friends with a knife maker here in Texas, a few years ago.
I've been helping out in his shop for a while, and I've decided to make the trade to full time maker. This the 3rd knife I've made, the first 2 were fixed blades.
