Here is a knife specifically made for the great guitaist Andy McKee. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ddn4MGaS3N4&feature=related
I have the honour of handing it over personally to him in less than a week :D

The knife has a hollow ground RWL34 blade made by me.

The handle is made with stabilized rosewood burl, mammothivory and pewter.
The rosewood is one of the finest pieces of wood I have ever used.

Wetshaped sheath with three different colours to get the right hue.

I wanted to give the finish on this knife extra effort, and I think it payed off.

Do like how the handle turned out! Love the rich color and grain in it, and the relief around your mark on the ricasso is a nice touch! :thumbup:
 
That knife is technically and aesthetically breathtaking! The sheath is excellent as well!
Thanks for the link, i am listening to him play now!

Thank you all for your comments, I appreciate it so much!

Andy McKee certainly is the best there is if you ask me!
His playing has simply floored me completely!
I will go see him in concert next week and I am so happy he found his way here!
His cd`s can be bought at: http://www.candyrat.com/

Thanks again!
