Umfaan 2000 Scans

[James Mattis]

Finally got a Y2K Umfaan onto my flat-bed scanner!

One lady I showed it to said it looked like the bright little circles, in particular, had been cut with a diamond.

Once again, my complements to the artist.

James, the circles look polished. Are they?

And the rest appears satin. Is that correct?

The little circles are so brightly polished they look a little like inset jewels at first glance. Three of the lines are also rather bright. It looks like they must have milled the four short lines and that broad chevron, then bead-blasted the handle, and then cut the three long lines and the bright dots, and then satin-finished the upper surface. Perhaps the artists can elaborate.

I didn't think much of the design at first. But this . . . jewel-like polishing, shiny against satin . . . oh, yeah!

Let's see, this is the 2000 Umfaam which would go really well with my new Classic 2000's . . . geez, this has got to stop!

Nice scans, James, as usual. If you just got yours, mine can't be far behind.

Seems like I'm always a couple of days behind you when they start shipping the folders.
