This is one I just finished. Kind of smallish, but very comfortable to hold. The blade's about 3 1/2 inches long.

Beautiful. I like the simplicity of the inlay. It seems very elegant to me.

That's a beauty, Lin!
How'd you tie that knot in the wire?

I like all that! I just got back from the W.F.Moran Exhibit opening at the SMKW in Sevierville and the Workshop, so I really appreciate this knife.

What finish did you use over the stain?

Wow-really like the inlay on that. Inlay is one of the things on my long list of "want to learn how to do". Heard something about crawling before running, though.... Great knife, Lin. And what kind of wood is that and is it stabilized?

"Smallish" knives are my favorites, and that one is outstanding. Love the curly maple and inlayed wire. What is the steel? You really hit a home run with that knife!

Very clean design with crisp definition between the surfaces. I like it very much.
