This one really looks great, Ron. Very much a skinner profile to the tip. The handle looks like it would fill the hand and give a very solid grip.
 
Ron:

I like the looks of your basket weave damascus and that birch burl handle is looking fine! Quite a bit of difference from the beginning, rough handle!
 
You bet Keith, when you live in the great white north, there are`nt very many suppliers, so I just make my own.
 
Ron:

You're making it very hard for me to hold 'off' from ordering another one of your creations before I've got some spendable $$! August 1st town taxes come due & they haven't settled on the budget yet, but they did settle on a big increase for us residents. I'm going to have to win big on the 'ponies' or talk them into letting me work some O.T. at work. Give me another 2 months & I'll be 'knocking' on your e-mail door with a new order! Keep up the fantastic craftsmanship!
 
It's mine , It's mine !!!!!

I have this baby in my possesion and she is beautiful . She is on the way to Kenny Rowe for a carved sheath to show her off in . Thanks for all the comments and sorry to be so long in responding . I had to have the puter repaired after a massive lightning strike at the house . Ron also sent me some tapes of the making of this knife , they are truly interesting to see . It just amazes me to see all these bladesmiths go thru in making a knife . Anyone wishing to see these tapes e-mail me and I'll get them to you , there are three of them . Maybe we could start a pass around LHknives tape . All I ask is to look at them and get'em to the next guy or back to me in good shape . I will be gone until Wednesday so I would have to ship them then .

Jerry

Ron & Jerry,
That damascus is just loverlie! Did you stay up all night crafting that mosaic pin, Ron?
 
Thanks guys! I`m glad you all like it.
I make each pin especially for each knife and I make them right in the knife, first piece is the 1/4" tube, then the next piece which is the hexagon piece, then the copper tube and so on. bonding agent is a secret..lol
