I am as amazed by the photography as by the knife. Both are excellent! The macro shots really highlight the details of Kyle's construction and the precise execution.

Insanely impressive work. I'm not a huge fan of MOP, just not my style I guess but those slabs are nothing short of spectacular.

Outstanding work by both Kyle and Caleb.
It takes an exceptional knife by an exceptional maker to still impress under such scrutiny.
The final photo alone speaks volumes as to the quality of this knife's construction.
Thanks for making the effort to share these with us Caleb.

This is amazing. I loved it the first time and now seeing it with the new photos is a treat! This is one of my favorites if not the favorite of all of Kyles knives, and its one of my favorite fancy bowies ever!

 

[JParanee]

Wonderful work on all accounts

Bruce has it right.
Take the closeup of the pins for example. Now mines look like they have been peened by a blind monkey with a drinking problem.

Still appreciate you guys sharing of course. :thumnup:

The materials used and skill sets to create such a piece are off the charts.

Caleb, your images are AMAZING.
Thank you both !
