Snakewood...

I just took a pic of mine Gary. My only concern about the Jokers is size. The wooden one is a drop too large and the plastic one is a drop too small. The three bears syndrome. Other than that I'm enjoying the blade shape and the overall design.
I have Jokers of several different sizes, but I'm not exactly sure what sizes are available in what models from what vendors. I went to the manufacturer's website from Spain (and asked for an English translation), and it looks like most of their models are made in several sizes according to the blade length measurements given there. For example, I saw what looks like the olive wood model I have with either stainless or carbon steel blade, with handles of olive wood or bubinga or beechwood (and maybe more handle choices that I've already forgotten), and with blades of 7, 8, or 9 cm (2.76", 3.15", or 3.54"). I didn't see any plastic-handled knives on that website, but they did have several models/sizes with "green fiber" handles, which I assume is some kind of synthetic material. My smallest Jokers, the horn knives with saber-grind blades, have blade length of 6.5 cm (2.56").
