Thank you, but my photos pail in comparison to most. The shadows in most of my pictures are a happy coincidence as I'm stuck in my office most days and just snap a quick picture with my iPhone of whatever knife I'm carrying that day as it sits on my desk. Compounding my lack of skills as a photographer, I also have something called essential tremor which makes my hands shake, which in turn necessitates resting my iPhone on the desk (or in some shots my dining room table) to keep the picture from being blurry. I wish that I could be more original in the pictures that I take, but I suppose that most of my pictures will continue follow the same 'tabletop' pattern. That said, I'm constantly in awe not only of the beautiful and interesting knives that posters here posses, but also the creativity and skill with which you guys photograph them. I really enjoy browsing this thread and really admire the effort, skill and thought that goes into so many of the photographs.
