thank you, I got one of those liberty HD's from my grandfather. Along with some of those other coins. The snap is pretty good, but the snap closing the knife could be a little better. I think it has the best fit and finish and overall quaility of any knife I have ever bought under $40
 
This will be the carry for a while. Shapleigh Diamond Edge punch. No back scale on the before, Micarta after.

I like that simple man, great choice of scale material. Nice grain to it as well, is it polished smooth or textured somehow?
 
Even though it is bit large for how I am dressed today, for the last day of barlow TOTM I am carrying my rescaled Colonial barlow.

I went out with three knives today :eek: A little overdressed, I know, but I couldn´t decide... ;)

Thanks, in that pic it is finished with a 1x30 belt sander (15 micron belt maybe?, don't remember). I plan on hand sanding it a some to smooth it more, not shiny, but to settle the fibers just a bit.
