They look great together! I managed to get a peach seed but that "pony-cut" looks really good too. Bill and the folks at Great Eastern sure know how to surprise us. :thumbup:

Great job Charlie! But I am curious, how did GEC run out of the original jigging? Did their machine break, or was their peachseed guy due to go on holiday?

It would be complete conjecture on my part, but the cutters could have gotten dull, or something occurred in the bone or dye. Producing a run of knives is like juggling 20 balls in the air!! So I am told.
 
As nice as those extra "fill in" covers look, I still like the Peachseed Jigging the best on these new TC's Charlie. :thumbup:
 
Holy smokes! What a couple of outstanding works of art and craftsmanship. Outstanding just like their respective owners. :cool:
 
I would love to see a video of how that checkering is done. If one exists, could someone point me to where it would be found?
 
Wow - I KNEW those two would look good together !!! :D:thumbup:

Thank you Paul, thank you Evan, Man just check out the Swedge going on with that Sheepie! Paul - again your knife looks phenomenal my friend!!! :eek:

Evan - if Bob contacts you and TRIES to contract you- by all means do the job, but Bob will be paying NO money, I know a few folksies who will do that for our mate.
