Todd, a terrific trio! I had my eye on 1561 esp. However, 1560 caught my eye too as it appears to have a semi-sink joint, very pleasing to me.

By chance I recently came across an old thread of yours on sunk joints (Custom Slip Joint Discussion), where you take a different perspective on sunk vs common joints. I prefer the lines of a closed sunk joint knife, but now see your point of the lines when open too.

Do you think a so called semi-sunk joint a reasonable compromise, or just undesirable both open and closed?

BTW #233 in that post is a real looker.:thumbsup:

I've made them all ways, and I just like the look of the knife open better with a full tang.
But some may not care, it would be a preference thing?
 
Hey, brother, have you considered or already made a lambsfoot blade? I'm pretty sure there's a lot of fellas that would love to see one. And congratulations on the work so far. It's really superb.
