Journeyman gone commie

Back to the original design scales here. How's, "The Bloody Journeyman", sound. This one was requested red for a journey through the Russian market.

The orange one is to be sent to my cousin stationed in the Iraq. This was a joint effort from my father and myself.

Thanks again to my father, now have some pretty nice photos to share these guys with you all. Any and all comments are welcome and much appreciated.

IMO the Orange and Black look best together

Very clean lines. Nice knives.

The red one is my favorite. I don't like tanto points. Both are very clean, well made designs.

that is a great design. I like it a lot. I prefer the spear point myself, but there is a part of me that loves a well executed tanto style.

Woo, mission accomplished. Thanx again for the support. I have a couple more of these to be ready for the moscow show in september, possibly to have an extra for sale here...
Later.

the handle is a bit to geometric imho. grinds appear to be crisp however. the handles just do nothing for me.

I agree with Keith.

Have you considered putting thumbdisks on those?

I agree with Keith's opinion also. The tanto just doesn't look as good to me. They both look VERY well made though.

Thanks fellas.
It seems to me, just being an observant knifemaker, it's one way or the other. Car or truck. tamatoe tamotoe. Tanto or drop point... well there are exeptions to every rule.
