Stainless steel pins
Curly maple scales with stippled inlay

It meets my definition of a fantastic lookin' knife. The stiple work really catches the eye and gives the total package a unique look.
 
Very nice knife.
Handle looks comfortable as is very pleasing to the eye. The stippling definitely adds in my opinion. Fit and finish seem to be top shelf.
I do prefer a longer racasso on a hunter as being able to choke up by placing the forefinger in the racasso/choil area can offer increased leverage when needed.

I would also prefer a more subtle maker's mark, as in my opinion the existing takes much deserved attention away from this beautiful and functional Hunter.
 
Hey Bologna if you will send me a private message with you name and where you are located, I'll add your logo to the colllection I am compiling for the CKCA.

Kevin,

Your comments are much appriciated and duley noted. I have it under good advise to pay attention to comments and critiques from you. I have been told almost verbatum, from 2 MS (Jay Hendrickson and AG Barnes) that I seek advise from on a regular basis, the same thing. The change of makers mark is in the works.
