A customer of mine from England asked me to make a knife for him to take on his upcoming Texas hog hunt.
The un-told story is that he and his wife are moving to the US and are at this moment packing!
They've been dealing with immigration for some time now to get everything legal.
Isn't that strange? Going through "Immigration" to make your move to the US legal?
Anyway, I got his knife done yesterday and sent him this photo.
He's a little busy and asked me to post this:
"HOT DIGGETY PIG!!!!!
That's just perfect mate, I couldn't be happier with it!
The Ironwood is delicious. Beautiful colour variation & the blade is .......well.....it's perfect. Just perfect!
Would you mind posting it up on the forums, please? (I can't type well with this big of a grin on m'face!)
Thanks for everything Brother. I can't wait to meet you in person & shake your hand.
Take care my friend.

This was a clay backed/hamon treated bladed forged from 2 inch W2.
The mild steel take-down fittings were hot-blued.
And the handle is a pretty nice piece of Desert Ironwood.
I'm proud to have made it for our friend.
