This 68 is MINE!

that sheath is lovely as well. If you do decide to go into production, I will definitely get in line for one.
 
I've been on vacation in Trinidad and took a hike through the rainforest bird sanctuary. Here are a couple of pics.

Saw your pic of the knife on Facebook, it made me stop speed scrolling. Nice piece, throw some more patina on that girl!
 
Great shots of the knife and hummingbird! Nice vacation destination too!

Enjoy,
Peter
 
I haven't really stopped and looked at that one before. It's a fine looking knife for sure. Very classic, a knives knife if you will. Reminds me of a knife I knew of growing up. :)

I love carrying my knives in a pocketslip because the scratches from my keys and stuff on the knife drive me nuts and the danger of scratching my phone with the knife makes me just as nuts. Once I have used a pocketslip for a few months, they take a beautiful, darker color. I can't wait to see what happens with this black one. :)

After losing a prized slipjoint recently because of a small hole in my front pocket, I have really been thinking that these pocketslips are the way to go. You will be hearing from me. The pocketslip will not fall through a small hole the way a knife can.

I'm totally sold on them and use one everyday. Hardly even notice that it's in my pocket anymore.
 
That is a very nice looking knife. The patina is really coming along. Question: do you find it uncomfortable to have the sheepsfoot sitting up so high in the handle when using the other blades? That has always been a concern of mine with most stockmen patterns.
I also like the photo of that hummingbird. Very crisp.
I'm thinking one of those pocket slips may come in handy.

I have not had an issue with the height of the secondary blades while using the knife. I do prefer single bladed knives, but am thoroughly enjoying this one!
 
Received my 68 two blade single spring today (thanks Derrick!) in Bocote wood. What a perfect little pocket knife! I don't need no stinkin' third blade! I'll shoot a pic tomorrow in good light. BTW, nice story about the return.
