Bottom knife is cocobolo. As it darkened it developed a sweet purple hue. One of my favorites. Thanks!

Super 007. I just can't look at this thread anymore. Too much temptation.

Very nice work Chin.

Very nice work Chin.

Thanks, my friend, I appreciate that.

I've been enjoying using and testing this one. That cryo quenched and aged D2 steel in a very thin edge is an amazing cutter.

Looking good my friend. How do you like it?

Thanks Alan !
I'm liking it a lot , it came razor sharp so didn t need to hit it on the edge pro or even my leather strop. It has i'd say about high 6 to low 7 pull which is on the higher end of what I like. But I'm able to get it started and pinch it open from there . I kind of like how solid the lock up is on a blade this size though and it has nice walk and talk . Fit and finish on this burlap micarta is super nice to with good blade centering also . I've also got another I reserved but wanted to make sure I like this one first lol.
In really loving these burlap micarta covers ,I was on the fence choosing this one but glad I did .

If Rembrandt painted knives I would imagine this would be close to his interpretation. Great shot.

 

[Dschal]

So I see you got one! Very nice.
