This is a knife I made this week for a friend who trades AC service for a knife sometimes. (Thank God for Rob!) I think its my best work so far (grind wise).

Its one of my Bushcrafters. 1/8" thick 01 with a 4.5" blade and 4.25" handle. Maroon mikarta, black and maroon liners, and mosaic pin. The other pins, and the lanyard tube are FR4.

I like the way you maximize the cutting edge. The overall knife has a look that I find appealing in a working knife - all business. Nice job!
 
Thanks. You've basically pegged my intention! Good eye!!!!
 
Great looking knives,Andy-I love the maroon with the layered spacers-it looks to be a great worker.:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
 
I wish the maroon spacer (vulcanized fibre) material matched the maroon mikarta better though...
 
While I love all your work, these stand out very nicely. Especially the Maroon. It's my favorite Micarta color.

EDIT: Andy, what's your E-mail address?;)
 
I think you got something good there. I think the hand picture show how sweet you designed the handle.
 
All pieces are really worth showing off, Great Job, I would bet you don't have an AC repair bill for years now. Congrats.

Haven't seen all the knives you've made so that I would be able to say that I agree that this knife has the best grinds, but I sure do like the way it looks.
 
very nice the hand rub is flawless. I'd tell you to keep up the good work but I doubt you're able to stop now:)
