I was fortunate to purchase the very first of Lin's one-piece knives with the integral rivet and picked it up in KC last year, it's the Hunter pictured here, and the Bowie is the very first Lin made and the one he tied for 2nd Place in Little Rock at the Cutting Competition....he gave me credit for naming it. The little necker does not have the rivet like the other two but is perfectly symmetrical, it'd be hard to stock-remove one so close....I'm sure Lin could do the rivet if he so desired. ;)

Lin is a First Class Gentleman and has been a pleasure to know and work with....Mrs. Rhea, too. :)

Very nice! I really like Lin's work, he is very talented and thinks outside the "Box". His forging skills are off the chart!

Dudley, you have very good instincts in collecting! Great score!

Congratulations on the set Dudley. You have great taste in knives.

One piece of steel forged to shape is impressive, even more so when the piece is a complete and functional work of art. Well done Lin.

Love 'em all! It's a perfect set! Now all Lin needs to make is a Large integral "X Rhea" style axe and no more edge would ever be necessary :D ;) ... And coming up with the "X-Rhea" was brilliant, Dudley! :) Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for sharing, Dudley. Lin's X-ray knives have a 'cool factor' that is hard to beat. Congrats on the hunter!
