Thank you Vince-thats very nice of you, I do know what you mean...I think that the people here are just great....Here is a photo of a BEAUTY of a knife that arrived yesterday...and speaking of great people...this person being one of them sent me this knife, I dont have a knife with a punch ( until yesterday ), what a combination....fantastic knife.
I want to thank this person Greatly, Im not too sure if I can name the guy-but he is one hell of a respected guy around these parts, and its a very humbling experience to recieve a knife from this person...I have experienced this a few times...and those guys know who they are, and I will be sure to do what I can to be part of this fantastic team that you are in Vince.

I just wanted to add, this knife is a lovely knife to handle, the pull is just perfect, even the punch is manageable , I usually find with GEC-TIDIOUTE...that they can be a wee bit of work until they come right ( and they all have so far for me-beautiful knives), but this one just came out perfect right out of the tube.
The half stops are great, W & T = perfection, and I must admit, I like burnt bone when done right...and man...this is done right...I think everything about this knife is bang on...thank you my friend for this very treasured knife.

Ken certainly got jiggy with that one. Very nice.

Thanks guys! Jigged Micarta is a often times overlooked scale alternative that is both attractive and durable.

I was going to ask what material it was. That is really cool. It looks fantastic and I bet it is grippy and darn near bullet proof (rather apropos for that knife I'd say).

This is the next best thing to sliced bread. Here we have a Case hobo knife with amber bone handle. Opening either the fork or the spoon will disconnect it from the middle blade giving you independant use of all utensils. When I first saw it I had to have one.

I been using this at work for a few weeks now and its held up great but I sure cant wait for my lockback whittler to get over and give it a run.
 
I'm most definitively goint to carry the 73 micarta today to start the week right, it's going to rotate with a medium stocky in the afternoon
have a good week's start!

Queen D2, reprofiled by Tom Krein? I bet that is one sweet slicer. Nice cocobolo scales, too.
