No pics..sorry, digi camera was stolen. Love this blade. Comfortable handle, even when striking. Well balanced. Looks heavier than it is. First thing I did was whack away at some black walnut logs. Hit as hard as I could and it was quite comfortable. No damage to the blade or the coating at all. I used a wood hammer to pount the spine a little and drive it into the log. Again, no damage. The sheath is great. In addition to the belt loop, there are several other ways to attach it to a pack or whatever. The pouch in the front is big enough for a large folder, sharepener of some type, or whatever you want. On the day Justin was to go to Iraq, he accepted my order and mailed it out. That is something I won't forget because I have never experienced customer dedication like that before. I will definitley be buying more knives from Justin in the future. I think this knife a must buy for anybody interested in camping/outdoor stuff. For $108 shipped there is no reason not to have one or maybe two.

Justin makes an excellent hard use knife at a bargain price. His customer service, I have never seen a person make and deliver a Custom knife as fast as Justin did.
I have only begun to explore the performance potential of this blade (mine is 5160, flat grind) but from what I have seen it is an exceptional hard use knife.
Thom Brogan has one in S7 and I am eagerly awaiting his review. I am very curious as to the durability diference between S7 and 5160.
Stay safe in the sandbox Justin our prayers are with you and your family.

I had the exact same experience. He did a great job on a few mods for me and I had it in my hands less than two weeks after my initial order!

Ditto on all the above. I purchased a custom from Justin that I love,and I got it in an incredibly short time. He answers emails quickly and is VERY patient about questions and last minute design changes.
I already have at least two other customs in mind,not to mention his production stuff that I'm dying to get my hands on.
Justins' customer service and the quality of his work is just fantastic!

Yes, Justin's extreme customer service, excellent workmanship and solid designs can only lead to repeat customers.
Given the reactions of some knife makers to their customers and potential customers, Justin's eagerness to please his customers really stands out. I think he has a very bright future ahead of him as a knife maker.
His Rengade hawk looks like a solid piece too.
