Very nice. Pics like this make the wait for my mini-trapper even harder.

Terrific. Filework seems to run in continuous pieces. Very well done.

Good looking as usual. Great file work. One of these days, after I recoupe from my resent addition to the family, I've really got to acquire one of your traditional folders.
 
I see your name on a thread and I know its gonna be a kool one and I wasn't dissapointed this time. Great pattern great job. Now when are you going to build a Congress?

anyway when I get caught up, I'm going to make some congress models with several different blade configurations & I'd like to get into making whittlers too. Dwayne

I now have something to look forward to. Probationary? Hell by the looks of the folders I have seen you would think you have been doing this for the last 30 yrs.

That is awesome. Love that file work!

Just starting on slipjoints, wish I were closer to you so I could see a real pro go after it!

Thanks Guys for all the kind comments, I'm always trying to get better. I'm at awe when I see the knives at the Shows & am always humbled by other makers work & hope to make pieces like I found out there. In the Book of Exodus somewhere, it's been a while since I read it so this is bad paraphrasing, but God told Moses to find the two guys that He had given the ability to engrave, & have them work on the Ark of the Covinent & lamp stands and all the other articles for the temple. Saying all of that, I know that all of our gifts & tallents come from above so All Glory & Honor goes to Our Father in Heaven, & I'm very thankful that He chose to give me the talents He did, Cause I like'em & Love the people He has put me in the same path as, All of the knife makers I've met are some of the best people I know, God bless all of you & if I havn't met you yet, hopfully I will in the near future. Thanks again for all the nice comments, I quit jabbering,

WOW!
One day, when I win the lottery, I hope to be able to ask you to make me a stellite multiblade. Exquisite filework. I have never seen you do scissors in a multiblade. Would scissors be ridiculous?
 
I havn't done anything in stellite yet, not sure how it fileworks or anything else about it yet, Where do you get it? I've never tried scissors either, not sure if you'd call that rediculous or not. Thanks for the comments, Dwayne
