I thought I would post picture of my three. They are still waiting for their two siblings to join them so I'll get more pictures up when they arrive after Blade.

From top to bottom:

Melee: double edged, G10 scales with black and red spacers, two mosaic pins, CPM-S30V

Small Hybrid: hunter blade with tactical handle, blue micarta with red and white spacers, CPM-D2E

Mini Neck Ninja: black micarta with red and black spacers, HD 440C, made for Chad Pirtle, one of four total and the only HD (heavy duty)

-Jeff

P.S. The Melee is my EDC so all the little flaws on the blade and on the butt (got dropped when I wasn't wearing a belt) are my fault, Neil's fit and finish are flawless!

Oh yeah baby! Great detail - thanks for posting these great pics Jeff. I can never get enough of Neil's knives - not even in pictures. :)
 
Damn Jeff,

You got a microscope on the end of your camera?? :eek: I think you revealed the nice grain structure in that D2E;)

Here is MY Melee, S30V, stabilized red dyed black ash burl, red/black spacers and a mos pin with copper highlights to go with the wood :p

FINALLY, I have a knife again!!

You are really killin' me here :rolleyes:

I would damn near give my left nut for that small Hybrid, definitely give my right for the Melee. Hopefully the Gods will smile upon me and I will be able to pick one of these bad boys up soon. In case nobody noticed, these are some awesome cutlery!

BTW, great pics man :cool:
 
The missus is allowing you to keep one for yourself? I'd love to be able to go through your rejects bin. If you are ever clearing any of that stuff out put an edge on it and I'll take it :)
