John Young, as promised

[Kohai999]

Crappy scans, great knives.

I was feeling a little nervous, as I was afraid that the Wilderness Fighter as created by Mr. Young was going to have similar features to the subhilt that Coop posted a few days ago, not that there was anything wrong with that, but I had specified sculpted guards, low choil, and handle shape that was more "Loveless" like. He succeeded with that knife very, very well.

Both knives were commissioned by me around a year ago, and have ATS-34 blades, the Dirk is handled in dyed stag. No engraving for these bad boys, they will speak for themselves. Very, very happy!

Best Regards,

STeven Garsson

Good catch. The Wilderness is one of my top 2 or 3 designs for a fighter - it's just lovely.

Even with the intolerable scan, I can see how nice these are. I am certain they are masterful. Beautiful combinations of materials and shapes.

Congrats, Steven!

He speaks the truth.

Nice knives, John's knives are frighteningly close to SRJ's and for a heck of a lot less $$$.
