Beautiful work, Steve! More business will be coming your way soon.
I love how the Pingo turned out. I'm usually not the biggest fan of wood because I'm all about symmetry and most of the time the wood grain on the right and left scales end up looking totally different. I love how on this one, the grind is VERY similar on both sides. Very cool!
I'm with you - the OD and Green (polished) looks so sick.
I'm been going through all the latest pictures and every time one comes up I start drooling.
seriously thinking about sending in a few knives to get re-dressed.

LOVE the Lacewood. Can't wait to get it on my Vallotton. :thumbup:
That's it for a couple weeks folks. Moving back up to MA to get the kids back near my family. I'm going to hit the ground running and all orders already placed with me have the lag taken into account. Thanks for all the support guys!
I was waiting and hoping to see some Dragonfly's with your scales.
At least on the last (actual) page there is one
Do you have pics of the tickness ? it look they are thicker than the G10 one. The screw are so far.
Anyway, I did look from the 1st page, you do nice works !!

Thanks for the kind words! The dragonfly scales are a bit thicker than the stock g10, and contoured for comfort. Feels especially nice in the hand with the bead instead of clip.
Here's a picture of the back with matching stretch.
The countersinks have to be deep to ensure that the pins engage both liners.

Thank your for the pics and explanations spketch !
I like the scales a bit contoured ! It's sometimes to rough on the Spyderco's.
I also like with a bead or something at the end, but for my hand the Dragonfly doesn't really need one.
On smaller, like Manbug, it's a must have.
Great work again, I may ask you to make me stuff in the future, if you accept International orders of course.
