Here is the link to my new knife pics. This is a Bruce Evans forged 5160 blade that I ground to shape. It has a stag crown handle with a brass pin and guard. The blade has been antiqued to provide that old used look. Note the custom filework on the back of the blade. Thanks to Bruce Evans for the excellent tutorial on filework. Please let me know what you think. By the way, most of you guys may remeber me as vaquero 57. This is my new identity as I have created my business. Cory

Very nice little knife!

The aging process you used made that blade look like damascus in the photos. Very cool.

Keep up the good work!

Cory, that sure is a nice knife. You really have the eye for a good working blade and an asthetic sense that just won't quit!

Hey you all, if the weather cooperates I'll get to see this knife in person tomorrow! Wish Cory & his family safe driving and wish me good luck!

Thanks again. I am really proud of this one. Too bad I built it for my uncle. I would have loved to carry it next deer season. Cory
