Looks better than ever, Jeff. Like a fine wine.

Thank you gents! I am lucky to own one of Jareds masterpieces. I still have yet to find an error in his work. Every grind is even to the eye from side to side. After all the use it still walks and talks like the day I got it. Flush in all positions, no gaps. Truly fantastic craftsmanship!

I consider my Oeser moose to be the best knife I own. My most prized knife. I have been using it for some time now and as my friend Gev said
I tend to agree
and as I mentioned in another thread ...
I will also add that Jared is on top of his heat treating. Mine is made of O1 tool steel and keeps an amazingly sharp edge for easily twice as long as my 1095 blades. Not to bad to sharpen either(I don't own any diamond sharpening equipment).
Thanks again Jared for a fantastic knife! I carry and use it often and it works perfect for my daily use. Could not be happier with it! Look forward to another one someday
Parting shot

Patriot's Barlow arrived today. Such an outstanding knife that feels so refined. Fit and finish is truly amazing. Oh yeah, can't forget to mention it's hair popping sharp! Thanks Jared!
Have any of you noticed how many other makers are copying Jared style of handle treatment? There are a significant
number of well known and respected folder craftsman that have followed Jared's lead. Not only is he talented, but visionary
at the same time, a renaissance man! This one is a perfect example of is skills...

Every new knife he makes gives me a twinge of jealousy!
Twinge of jealously .
I get a indescribable pain down deep in my gut
I have no idea how to get one , but I would love to have what would probably be the first Oeser knife in Australia ( some lucky Aussie will now post up pics of their beauty and blow my dreams to smithereens )
I would cherish any knife made by Jared , but a single blade Sheepsfoot is what I see as I drift off to sleep at night
