She arrived in the mail today and I'm all excited.

Bill,

Your blade profile and grinding, is amazing.

Your work on attaching the scales and sculpting them, is amazing.

Your polishing, is amazing.

Your clean, even edge, is amazing.

Your finishing touch with the ren wax and overall attention to detail, is amazing.

Your sheaths are out. of. this. world.

You, sir, have a loyal customer for life.

The only bright spot at work tomorrow is going to be carrying this around on my hip.

Many thanks again,

I'm helping my old man set up an ERP system and train everyone on how to use it before I'm off to grad school this fall. Before that, all through my undergrad, I worked out on the floor; running the injection molder primarily.
 
THAT IS CLEAN!!!!!

I REALLY like that one!!!!:thumbup:


Nice score Toddles and GREAT WORK Bill!!!!!
 
Toddles, we warned ya' buddy, I bet you can hear your quarters and dimes hitting the bottom of that coffee can just waiting for your next one . . . . :D
Great looking design & sheath combo. Mr. Akers does put together some fantastic duo's believe me. And now what one are we "saving" for next ???
Congrats BA, super looking knife & sheath.
Be safe.
 
Next? I want to scrounge up a few bucks over the next month or two and see if I could twist his arm into make me something similar to that "Utilitarian" he sold a few days ago.

I don't think a lot of people like the sunflower husk. But as Bill says "pics don't do it justice". I've got a Backwoods with the sunflower husk, and it has lots of color that doesn't show up in pics.
 
WOW IMWILSON.....

That is SWEET!!!

You KNOW who you can call when you get tired of looking at that one right!?!?!?!? Yep...ME!!!!! I may have to get Bill to throw one of those together for me with Dark Osage scales if he's all out of ironwood or if you won't sell that one to me!!!

Take Care,

Stump
 
Thanks Stump, I'm sure Bill will be glad to hook you up. Just got home about 1/2 hour ago and it was waiting
on me. It feels great in the hand. Whoops, didn't mean to hi-jack Toddles thread.
 
Not a problem. :)

I'd be interested in a few pictures of your sunflower husk one to drool over if you have any.
 
;) Welcome to the Addiction! A Gorgeous knife,Toddles! :thumbup:

Thanks David, the Ironwood looks great. Bill suggested it, I never would have thought about ironwood.
Of course, Bill gives more than expected when he makes a knife. I'll try to take some pics this weekend and post them.
 
By the way, Toddles, did you build the yard furniture in your first picture?

Very nice!
