OK, just thought I'd ask. Are you set on a flashlight? Any other trades? What's your cash price on it? I really like the knife, wharnies are a favorite of mine and that polished bone looks great. What's the story on the nail knick? Looks a little rough in the pictures. Given any thought to cleaning it up? I imagine 5 questions is enough for one post. Thanks.

Hi Ritt, emailed your answers but wanted to explain that nail nic to the rest that view it.
Mike Cooper left the spine of the blade full thickness that allowed you to grip and open the knife via the spine, but I took and carefully put a nice swedge grind on the spine, and of course lost that section to grip...oops, so I had a friend "help" me at work and would have rathered he didn't so I didn't really finish up making the nail nic but I borrowed a dremel tonight and will work on cleaning it up myself and will post a new photo when done, my friend was in too much of a hurry and made me nervous so I stopped before any thing bad could happen :)
