13.75" overall
8.5" blade of CPM 3V
5.25" handle of Arizona Desert Ironwood w/ red liners, brass corby bolts


I drilled out the hande a LOT on this one...and used thinner stock (overize 3/16"). Add to that the density of the ironwood...makes the balance on this one perfect!

Feels light enough to carry....yet, being 3V, is practically indestructable. :thumbup:


The only sad part of this knife is that this is the ONLY ONE...and is already SOLD.


Hope the new owner will be :eek: :eek: :eek: when he sees it. :D


Thanks for looking!!!

Dan
 
:D:D PERFECT IN EVERY WAY!

I can guarantee you that you have surpassed whatever expectations the new owner had; I think "Function Balanced With Beauty" could not be more appropriate (that might even be an understatement), I guess we will just have to wait for a review!!

;);)
 
I just double-checked and it is not April Fool's Day!

Right? Right?? No jokes today, okay?:cool::cool:
 
no jokes, bro. All for real...and every bit of it headed your way. :eek: :D :p
 
I will post a review and some more pics after it gets here; I think I'll take it up to the Smokies for a weekend of camping and bring the horses and family along, too!:D

:eek: Never mind, the wife says:rolleyes: She is taking the horses camping up in the Smokies and that she's bringing the family along with her but I can bring the"Nessie" if I have to! You know I'll have to!

I guess it's all a matter of perspective!

Just a few more days 'til the weekend!
 
LOL!!!!


:D :eek: :p



Man...SWMBO....how do they always get what THEY want?

Ok...wait...I remember...:foot:


:eek: :eek: :eek:


:o
 
Dan,

I couldn't tell if you got the PM's I sent or not plus we don't have e-mail access where I am right now; but I was just wondering what the status of the sheathes and both of the Nessie's is. :D

Appreciate it bro'!:cool:
 
I emailed you about the basket weave pattern - if it was ok with you. Look here at what I normally get done:

If that pattern is ok with you - then we are good to go.

Yes, I did get your email with your weave...it's similar, but not the same. Let me know.

Thanks!

Dan
 
I didn't get the e-mail for obvious reasons!:eek:

The basketweave works for me, so let's make that a go ; but what are the other patterns he can put on the perimeter that are different than "stars"?:confused:

If there's not an option then just go with it as is! It will serve it's purpose.:)
 
Dan,

You think I could get a pic of the spine so I can show it to some friends up at Bragg they seemed pretty interested but they wanted to see a spine shot, I wouldn't mind it either for comparison!:thumbup::thumbup:
