Eliot,

That knife is beautiful. If I had the money I would snap it up, and I'm sure it will be gone soon.

Very nice knife. I will get one of your knives after I recoup from buying a couple from others.
 
I hollow grind about 95% of my blades, maybe the light shows the grind off a little better

Very nice "user"! Hollow grind or is that an illusion?

Hey TB,

If the hollow grind is like the one on my knife from Eliot, it is what I would call a "shallow" hollow grind, as opposed to the deep, wide hollow grind on my Kershaw Skyline. There is plenty of metal behind the edge to stand up to heavy use, but still makes for a pretty decent slicer. I am a big fan of hollow grinds for an EDC blade, and I really like Eliot's approach to a hollow grind.

Also, Eliot's designs are more than beautiful - he uses the kind of handle geometry that fits really naturally in the hand. All this makes for some great user knives.

Oh, I should also mention that I am really impressed with the quality of his leatherwork. I was very surprised how nice the sheath was on the knife I got from him. Whoever buys this should definitely splurge for the sheath.

Thank you shahrpandsafe, this one does have a pretty deep hollow grind, I ground this one on an 8 inch wheel.
