glad you got to hang with the girls. and see, this is why i love to see these WIP's. I would have never thought to stack the scales to glue the sides together. genius. saves on clamps. ;) thanks John!

Tomorrow I will be shaping the handles, I let the glue set for 24 hours.
 
Wow they are looking great! Can't wait until tomorrow to see the handles take shape.
 
I`ve got two nice knives ready for photos, but that POS Photobucket is not working again!

yeah...i agree with your assessment. i always had problems with photobucket. i switched to flickr. it's free, but only up to 200 pics, so that might be a problem for you...dunno.
 

nice! i'm really liking this one. the bade shape reminds me of the VT Hunter...just with a different handle shape. what would you call that blade shape? i have seen it referred to as straight-back, but i need to know, because this is becoming a favorite of mine.

thanks for the WIP John.
 
Good looking blades. Cool scales on this one.
