Joe, you made a sweet one here. I like it ! and from the top view it looks more sleek than bulky. And i know from past experience that your knives are way better than your pictures.
Is the jigging yours ? and will scales darken with use ?
Congratulations Joe, i think you've made a really fine knife.

HI Roland, NO, the jigging on this one is factory,not mine, an as far as getting darker , I have no idea, since there natural color they could turn over time as does bone an stag? Thank Roland for your good words an I wish I was there IN BC to see that beautiful place, keep the Bears away have have fun.------ Joe
Joe, i'm still thinking about this one, but i want to understand the stiffness of the pull better. My hands have become quite arthritic just in this past year so i need to be careful in the pull strength required, and each of us grade a little differently.
So, is the pull on this one about the same as usual for you ? (i have 3 of your folders and all are still o.k. for me). Or is this one stiffer than average compared to what you usually do ?
thanks my friend, roland

Roland , I think you should let this one past my dear friend, its a little more then what I normally do, but you hear all these guys wanting firm openings, but where are they now, Ill never make a firm opening knife again , from now on all my knives will be 5 an under on the firmness scale, your knife is coming an you'll know it when it's hear, I've got a new sweet pattern that you will like .
