This is a three piece set I did in Cru-wear at Rc62/63. I've been saving this Koa for some time and it's pretty gorgeous. Edges are 0.007" for the pig sticker, 0.005" for the hunter, and zero edge for the bird and trout. I had 13 days start to finish, but lost four days with a power outage and a delay on refilling the LN. Feedback is welcome. I would have liked to take a little bit more time on fit and finish, but the customer was aware of the limitations due to time.

Thank you! Those are very popular profiles. :thumbsup:

I do quite a few knives in those designs.

In the "it's a small world category!": the three knives ordered by a friend in St.Albert were given to my next door neighbour in Sturgeon County! Well, my next door neighbour is over 1/2 mile from me, but still.... I thought the name was familiar, but I didn't realize the spelling of my neighbour's last name, and he looks 10 years younger than he apparently is.

It'll be easy to work out the lifetime free sharpening part of the deal, not that he'll need much sharpening with cru-wear. :)

That pig sticker is my favorite out of the three. The KOA on all the pieces looks very nice.
Great work.

That was the nicest piece of Koa I've seen. I've used about 100 pieces so far. I'll see if he'll give them back so I can fix the rough edges from the rushed order.
