  1. That looks fantastic. Very clean and sharp.

    Placement looks good too. Closer to spine and handle is probably the most common placement, and that's about where you have it.

    So when's the grand opening sale? ;)

    I am not planning on any opening sale , I despite my goal of not taking custom orders I took some local ones and I have a little backlog that I am trying to deliver . I already have used this forum more than I should have as hobbyist and don't want to clog up more with my sale threads .

    Thanks Anton , I usually look for small blemishes as an excuse to add the knife to my work rotation but i am so happy with it I am thinking about putting up for sale rather than keep in it for myself
     
  19. That's a beautiful D shaped Wa handle. Still my favourite!

    Can I get on the list for one?
