Thank you, and yes, a matching pair would be nice
In the right light the scales have a lot of depth, like a really nice sunburst guitar. Your photo captures it pretty well actually.

I was able to order one based an early reserve, but no photos yet. Supposed to ship tomorrow?
The place I ordered from had photos of the one I'll be getting and it looks good! :thumbup:

Great!, just got email, I have a short window to pick mine before it ships too. Stag is such a personal preference on traditional knives. Nice to have choices,

Yes. For me particularly. As I live on a remote island off the coast of New Zealand the attention Barry gives to small details such as writing 'Thanks Jon" on the invoice is important and welcome. It gives credence to the concepts of customer loyalty and goodwill.
Cheers.
Cheers.
Got mine today. I REALLY like it. Was going to keep it back in the collection, but might have to carry it. Really neat coloring. Once my stag gets here, Ill post a pic of my 48s. Did notice the Northfield is a bit harder to pinch than the Tidioute because of the swedge. No biggie though!

This is what I got today. Sorry but the Blueberry came out on the darker side as I took these photos tonight with a flash. I'll try to take a couple more tomorrow in better light. I also took a couple with my Hawthorne that I got last week. Gotta say I'm loving em both!
I have to say that the Blueberry surprised me. It's a lot more beautiful than I thought it would be and the workmanship is top notched.
Looking forward to the Sambar Stag I just ordered!

Great pic of a beauty, Meako! :thumbup: :thumbup:
Here ya go...
Exceptional photo work as always Al. The blue dye in the "blueberry" almost reminds me of my 92 Talon in blue camel bone which is one of my all time favorite dyed GEC colors.

Thanks, 007hunter! Yep, it's very similar to the Talons... a beautiful hue.

So, the Blueberry was a mis-dye of Green? Came out a fine hybrid even if I'm not that fond of blue on knife handles! Blueberries (and the wild ground covering Bilberries we have here in Europe taste excellent) but they really stain your lips&tongue purple
The Green ones look really decent though, the bones ones will age impressively if they see some wear&tear and not the collector's shelf only. In a previous run, there was a very attractive Cobblestone Bone, think it was on the 2 blade Jacks. Some stainless Bareheads would set the pulse racing too:thumbup:
