Ok so the band the offspring has been apart of me as long as I can remember. I have seen them live, upclose and personal and even had the pleasure to hang with them once... So I loved Tattoos and I knew I would get one of them someday. There music had brought me joy and because of it had made life long friends...

So when the band came out with there "skull" I loved it

HOLY #$&* That is one beautiful knife! Rosewood and spalted maple? Who did that work? I'd love to have one with the ZT logo inlayed.
 
Thanks Everyone! Its just simply stunning..Its a working piece of art IMO.. The artist of this Scale is a member here so he might poke his head in.
 
Very nice. I was a huge fan of The Offspring growing up as well. My tastes have drifted since then, but that is an incredibly cool way to show your appreciation for them. Beautiful knife!
 
Thanks! Now I got to convince myself to carry it. It's just to awesome to sit around

That is amazing work, I used to love the Offspring and still jam out to them every once in a while! That knife looks awesome!
 
I am not big on wood handles, but that is a-freakin-mazing!!

I can't tell you how many hours of my early-teens were spent listening to Americana on loop. Every time I hear a song from that album, I immediately hear the intro to the next track at the end.
 
Someone spent some serious time and effort getting it just right. Very well done.
