the lighting was good outside today (plenty of white clouds) so i took photos before they were sharpened or the sheaths were made. i term them loveless appreciation knives. i appreciate his work and try to make something like his but with obvious differences, like the ricasso, stamp and choice of steel. there is a reflection of something on the tip of the ironwood knife making it appear oddly shaped. thanks for looking.

3 3/4" 1084 hollow ground blades.
edge thickness before sharpening .018
