I agree "Copperhead" and i know it's a super smooth, super sharp, highly finished folder because i have the Integral Phil posted before this one. Phil must have a huge natural talent because every aspect of his folders is right up there, absolutely comparable with top makers of 20+ years experience. But he's not a very good picture taker !
Phil i suggest that you post 3 or 4 full size pictures so that people don't have to go on faith or take my word for it.
Todd Davison does an excellent job of presenting his fine knives as an example.
If a knifemaker is going to sell his knives himself, he must also become an accomplished knife photographer. There's no way around it. Gotta show us how amazing your work is by better pictures.
$300 for an Integral folder with this level of workmanship is a deal for the buyer.

You're absolutely right Roland...I ain't much of a photographer. Point taken and I'll see what I can do to get better!

OK, did a little reading this morning and took the knife outside to take a couple more photos and added them to the post. Hopefully they are a little better. Seems I need to build a photo tent so I can get more consistent photos. -Phil
