Skyline wood handles?

[Timanator]

Is this a Kershaw release or something created by some mad scientist?

His work on re scaling knives is among the best. This a JYD II he did just recently. I will prob see him today at the farmers market, and i can show him my new custom Sean O'Hare Finback.

Doh! I ordered one thinking it was a Kershaw special edition release.

It is still a great looking knife

That knife looks great IMO also the price seems pretty reasonable to me I may have to have one

Cool. I'm not much of a wood handles guy except on traditional knives, but those are nicely done. I'm sure there are some folks out there who will be very happy with them!

I guess I'll find out in a few days if I like it or not. Just wished the site made it clear this wasn't a Kershaw production model, on their site they even listed model # as a 1760DOB which sounded to me like a factory model.

Hi Timanator -

Nothing to worry about - the knife is spectacular, and everything I have seen (or had done) by Phillip has been outstanding.

Congrats on a one of a kind Skyline that is sure to be a favorite for you.

best regards

In fairness, the description does state that the scales were made by Phillip Dobson. And echoing what mqqn said, all of Phillip's custom scales that I've seen pics/reviews of on the forums have been superb. So I doubt you'll be at all disappointed with your purchase.
