Wow, Bruce.
There's a lot of thought put into that knife.
Not "off the shelf" by any stretch of the imagination.
I really like it.
 
Looking good
Nice gentle curve on the guard
Coin edge on ferrule & pommel complete the package.

That's going to make a great addition to someone's collection!
 
Clean lined beauty, Bruce. Especially nice touch on the spine line,(reflected by Paul in the sheath),

Thanks guys.
Well were gone to the "windy city"
Hope to see some of you there to shake hands.
 
great lines!
What do you call the technique for grooving the spacer and buttcap? It looks great, adds a great dynamic to the design.
 
^thanks Karl:)
 
Another winner Bruce!!!!

My only regret is that you'll be in Chicago this weekend and not Portland! So I can't see it!!! :thumbup:

Good luck with the Chi-town show!!!
 
Very nice Bruce.
I like the blade profile (really nice clip grind) and the and sweeping contour of the guard most.
 
what is interesting is that this message is the first to mention the Chicago show and there is no talk about the Blade West show. I'm not impressed by the few makers that are listed to be at the Chicago show and while there are quite a few dealers, those #'s seem to be down also. I wonder how much the change of venue is the reason for this drop off of table holders. I expect it will also affect attendance but will know more hopefully from someone in attendance.
