Nothing wrong with any of them! I would say they are winners wether they were your first three or your threehundreth.

I'm glad he finally finished those, now he'll have more time to coach through the rest of mine. I'm hoping to trade him shooting and bowfishing lessons for knife and sheath building lessons   :biglaugh:

Whoo hoo, I think that dp w/ the hickory handle has my name on it.  I really like that style. Nice work. Larry
