Hey Matt! I told ya so! that first one was cool at the Puyallup show... but too tapped to do anything... thanks to ol' Nick! LOL!!!
But obviously others think it's cool, too!
Now... same size, blade shape - but with a smaller, oval guard to extend both up and down beyond the blade... like we talked!

You're gettin' closer!!

I just like to know about materials and dimensions. Just that regular boring stuff, but I always find it interesting. I would also like to know a little about the construction of the handles on those top two knives.
