What do you think of this image?

Hey Man. First off, you send me a private message? I don't have it....?

The ivory is closer in my opinion to my image BUT is more off white/yellow in person and looks aged. Coops photo is when the knife was new so the ivory really wasn't aged at that point, it just came out a little darker i guess.
I think the ivory does look a bit aged in person but not too bad.

The chipping was there when I got the knife so I am not sure what the story is with it. I think it got a tiny bit worse in my hands, but the knife is so beautiful I just have to deal with it. :)
 
Oo not bad! I'm with Don. You know I like my dark backgrounds. ;) And propping knives up so there's a little space under them always helps. I've never been a fan of backgrounds with patterns so I suggest random textures. If you're going to shoot more then grab yourself a couple good backgrounds here: http://artpapersonline.com/
I get those annoying hues on my blades all the time too. I just use Photoshop and desaturate. I do like a little colour though. Totally colourless metal is lifeless metal... usually. I would grab a mirror and fill those darker shadows with some light.... or just randomly through some light anywhere on the knives with a mirror. Some mirror anywhere is better than no mirror in my experience.
