For those of you who are curious, this is a photo of the knife that is being engraved. So far it has been a collaboration with Delbert Ealy, Fred Rowe and now Ken Hurst doing the engraving. He is engraving it with a shooting star and planets inlaid in silver. Thank you everyone who bought blocks to help me pay for this.

Pay-Pal has been sent. I am glad that the money is going towards such an interesting project. I can't wait to see what Ken Hurst does with this.

 

[Los Angeles]

Mark, I apologize. I forgot to include my user name and block numbers.

You'll see a payment for $70 from Kent Bell of Venice, CA. That's me. Thanks and sorry for the screw-up.

A new registered member npperez had chosen some of the best blocks in this thread. His profile did not allow any PMs or Email. After over a week has gone by with no contact or payment so I have made those blocks available again.
