i have a Shadow Toothpick, same size, from Ken. it's a wicked blade ! scary weapon it's so sharp and pointy. but mine has no liners; don't miss them and it's very slim. but Ken, i've never seen you make another. how come ?
no hijack intended: if you want a wicked sharp Toothpick in just the right size:
Buy this one.

That knife is the one that would finally graduate me into the world of gentlmen's carry! Wow. What a beauty. If another similar to this comes up I hope I'm first ;)
 
I keep coming back to this one.
I really like the way Ken designed this knife. The blade just melds in to the handle.
Congratulations both of you.
 
I really feel fortunate to have gotten this. I own lots of knives, but this will be my first non-factory knife. I've been reading on the forums here for a while, trying to learn what I can. I don't feel I know very much, which is why I haven't posted much. I've seen other knives for sale that I've loved, but have never been in time to get one. Yesterday was my lucky day and all your kind comments make it seem all the more so.

Thanks.

Thanks for all the great comments guys, to answer rolands question about why I haven't made another linerless shadow- I don't know why, I really don't have a preference. I actually carry one of these daily and its a full blown toothpick with double bolsters and all so for me I can't say its a weight thing.
Ken.

Wow Great job on the knife. Congratulations on your first custom purchase.
 
The knife arrived yesterday and I have to say, it's even more spectacular in person than in the picture. The fit and finish are perfect. I'm not sure how to describe it other than it's almost jewel-like. I can't stop looking at it.

Best of all, the knife has seemingly contradictory characteristics in that it fits really well in my hand, but seems to almost disappear in my pocket. My only real concern is having it rattle around my pocket with keys and change and such, so I think I'll look for a pouch for it.

Ken, my hat's off to you. Thanks for your hard work and skill. I'm going to enjoy this for a long time to come.
