This folder continues to reside in my pocket anytime I want to be inconspicuous and sheeple friendly. I love this folder.

He's also got one of the classiest maker's marks I've encountered. Very stately.

Q is always a stretch once we got past Quesenberry.

Here's one from Bailey Bradshaw, MS, who Quit making blades and now builds Quality full custom rifles.

And a rifle, just in case anybody thinks I'm calling him out for quitting. Super fine work! This is his FarQuharson Double Rifle.

Ok, last one by me, you guys need to get more creative with your "X" entries!

Set of knotting prickers in brass with self harvested spalted pecan. Similar to a marling spike, but used for finer more decorative work.

And since Coop started this thread I should also include his work on Mike Deibert's 5 JS Knives.
Thanks Coop for the awesome pic!

 
^^^ That's some great stuff. The middle fighter won BEST JS submission knife in 2012. Eric did a great job.

Mike, you ROCK!

I googled up an H so I could get to I. These knives below are by my brother, Travis Fry. He was able to acquire in trade a whole tusk of pre-ban elephant Ivory. Here are the first three knives he made with the ivory. I think he traded these knives for the tusk. Unfortunately for you guys, Travis moved to Canada for 11 months and had to leave his knifemaking tools in Houston, TX. No more ivory knives for a while, but these were too good not to show. Clean work, bro.

Jason, you do a great job of keeping this going. Those knives of your brothers look really good.
