All right Iz lets see #1. How far have you come. I bet you still got it lying around the shop somewhere. How many knives did you make b4 you sold one? And on what # did you start convexing?
 
+1 I want to see your first, well first several. Come on, even if you don't still have them, I know you have pictures.
 
*sigh* You guys are bound and determined to embarrass me aren't ya?;)

Ok, you asked for it.

A Blackwater and an Osage.
Huge, thick, terrible convex grinds. If you want to call them grinds.:barf:
A nice big glue gaps where the scales meet up.:o One guy bought them both...poor fella.:(
I only made about ten or so knives those first three years. I ended up doing extensive testing before I got serious in 2009.

I cant believe that you sold #1. I always thought that that was bad juju to get rid of the first one!!!
