That curly birch looks great. I'd love to see the knife shown at an angle that displays the blade better, but I like what I see.
 
Thanks for the kind words!
I'll take a shot of the blade. The curly birch is truly beautiful, I'll try to polish it later.

I like it a lot! IMO, it's not too busy and all of the elements work well together.
Very nice combination of styles.... Bowie, Leuku..... whatever! :cool:
