Wow, thanks for all the kind words everyone and thank you Joe for posting pics of your knife. A lot of great comments from people I have a great deal of respect for. I appreciate all of them and am humbled by the incredible work that many of you makers do here on the forums.
I guess it's obvious who has influenced me the most. The list of contributions to my style is long but one stands out. I just hope Andy subscribes to the old adage that "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery."
Todd, since you let the cat out of the bag here are pics of the rest of the knives that were in the batch with Joe's minus two that were given to some of my family as gifts before the pic was taken. This was my first batch. Before this I had made two knives.
And here is the one that stayed with me.
BTW, if you ever want some amazing custom phenolics just contact fod above me. He makes some amazing stuff.
Thanks again everyone!!
