Awesome work. The detail on the D guard is the best I've seen. A great addition to any collection !
 
Mike, judging just from the picture, that might be the most flawless knife I have ever seen from you. Beautiful! Congrats!!

Oh, and nice picture, Caleb.
 
Beautiful lines and materials. Perfectly executed in every way.

John White made THE most aesthetically pleasing D-guards I've ever seen. This one is equally as wonderful. I'm so glad to see someone can carry the torch, so to speak.

Well done Mr. Ruth. :thumbup:

How eloquently stated! :D ;) :p (you know I love you man.)

But seriously, my first thought as well. :)

To my eye, there is nothing I would change and not a single detail out of place on this knife. The dramatic image captures all of it perfectly.
