I agree- #2 is looking good! If I didn't have a couple buys to do this w/e- it would be mine!
 
thank y'all very much. These are some of my best work to date, some thing just clicked with this batch things that have ben good but a little ruff smoothed out for me. I also broke down and invest in a bunch of new quality belts and it shows in my grinds I am getting the crisp lines and symmetry that I am looking for in my blades. Now that I am getting the confidence to play with the handles some of my work working back ground is paying dividends. Mostly it is that every thing is feeling smooth in the shop now, I owe that to Andy Roy and Dylan Fletcher who have ben patiently mentoring. They are helping me build a solid base of knowledge to work from, then pushing me to find my own style and try new things. I see myself making knives until I draw my last breath and then one of my boys better finish the heat treat before they move my body :-) again thank you for your interest you guy's are the reason i get to do this.

I quit putting my "dogwood blossom" makers maker on my knives (I use my name instead) because it looks like a shamrock, but for you..........I would do this.
