Nice pic!!
I hope it is, pomegranates are my favoriteNice patina
My pomegranate is loaded with flowers, I think it’ll be a good harvest in the autumn![]()
Just gotta stick it into something every dayGood effort mine is about the same patina,you need an apple a day.![]()
I always look forward to your opinions, Duncan!! I am glad the knife meets your standards!! Bill did a wonderful "old-school" job on the fit and finish!! I am very proud of this knife, and I know Bill is also!I must be the very last to have received my City Stockman, Thanks to my Post Master Mr. Paul Hilborn who sent off a package to me that had a few knives in it, My last package left Paul's House just before the City Stockman arrived.
Charlie, I have always loved your labels on your releases, I love the front label design - I think that is a huge hit!
The Tang stamp of Waynorth Cutlery is a huge one for me, and as well Buffalo Brand. Double Bolstered, double threaded with that stunning Jigging - and that Empire Shield slots in beautifully.
Fit and Finish is superb, Pulls are perfect even for my weak nails - I agree when I read the pull was a 7.
This Knife is so close to a Custom Knife its no surprise, I cannot for the life of me think of one of Charlies releases that hasn't met this standard, and I am guessing that that is the result of two great minds coming together on these projects that we are so lucky to experience.
The Swage work on the main is amazing, when viewing the Pile side the Swedge is almost old era where it's long and deep, and you can see why that is, not only aesthetically pleasing but so important as Bill has hardly an Air gap between those Blades - WOW!
Charlie, you did it good again!
Happy Birthday!!!Bump to Da Top !!!!
My Birthday carry and still hasn’t left my pocket and part of my every day carry
