They are all beautiful knives, quite a nice collection. I am very fond of the A.S:thumbup:
 
Very nice collection! I have a Fiddleback and I absolutely love it! Thanks for the great pics. I don't know what it is about the nessie pattern that is so appealing but it is one of my favorites. That Ariel is real sweet also!
 
Love the Ariel Nessmuck. I was 2 days late for the run so I have to wait until maybe this fall to get one. How does it cut, and I can only assume that the handle is extremely secure for cutting.
 
Those sure are some beauties! If I recall, don't you have one done by Kid Coteau? How do you like that one compared to other makers? I'm expecting mine in a couple of weeks and the anticipation is killing me.
 
Ilbruche,

Those are beauties! If you need any independent field tests, we can probably work those in the rotation:D.

The handle is great and it is very sharp. Definitely the sharpest of the bunch. Just got it today so I haven't put it through the paces yet. The stag has a natural curve to it. It swells outward towards the palm and inward towards your fingers, but is comfortable in either hand. Ariel is known for his great ergonomics.

Nope no Kid Coteau.

The handles on the Gossman and Fiddleback are both awesome. I'd say the Gossman would be a better skinner and slicer while the Fiddleback would excel
in hard use.
 
All are nice but my favorite in that line up is the one Fiddleback made.

I think that may be the best one I've seen of his. He totally nailed the blade shape on that one.:thumbup::cool:
 
GREAT LOOKING STUFF....:eek: that's a nice little nessmuk collection...

i love that fiddleback....:thumbup:
 
beautiful nessies ilbruche :cool: Hey are the wooden handled ones Orange Osage, African Blackwood, and curly Koa? those are my best guesses :confused:
 
Man, cool pics. I wish I'd have dyed that sheath a different color, or not dyed it at all. Its ox blood now, and I just don't like that color too much.

Thats the fancier Nessmuk I make. Its 1/8" thick 1095 steel. The lanyard tube is garolite (mikarta). Looking at it now I wish I'd have put it inside a brass tube too.
 
Those are some nice nessies. Heres mine, I picked it up not to long ago, hope to get some more soon.
