Another beauty by a master knife maker in my books. I agree with the Dr. D again. I think GL should make a bunch of knives then we should fly down to his shop and have a fondling and buying session. Also once again love the sheath that comes with it.

I don't want to buy anymore knives this year, but if one from GL has my name on it I will. Or next year is fine too!

What kind of blade style is that?
 
Now that is different. I'd love to hold it and see what it feels like.

Ben; I would be glad to ship it to you for approval. If it fits your hand as well as it does mine, you will want it.
 
That sounds like a winner Gerry.
As a caveat, be sure your finger fits easily into the cutout. If it's tight I'll cut myself. My staff keeps me away from sharp objects while I'm working.
 
Ben; Lots of room in that cut-out for my index finger; we will have to see if it works for you. The knife will go out to you on Monday.
 
Thank you for the business Ben, I knew you would like it unless you had hands like a country ham.
