All done. #1 is in the mail. These are 2, 3, and 4. I snapped this shot just to show you and will get a pro photo as soon as I can.

Lin, i know it's tough to make two alike, but 4 of them is quite a challenge, Nice job, the new owners will be very happy.

It saddens me that this thread was started on my birthday and none of these fine knives are coming to my house. :D
As to that "plain wood", simplicity just works sometimes, eh? Beautiful work as always, Sir.

Thanks guys.
#1 and the sheaths arrived this afternoon so I took a shot of them in the sheaths. These are basic pouch sheaths built like a tank.

Outstanding Lin! I am not confident enough to try multiples of the same knife. Kenny did a great job getting the sheiths to match too. Should be a happy, and proud customer.

Those look great! That style of knife really speaks to me. I also really like the way the underside of the guards on your hunters transition to the handle material. I seem to have trouble making a smooth transition like that without creating a 'finger groove' on my knives. Whats your trick?

Craig, If you'll notice, I reserve the back 1/3 or more of the guard material for the transition from guard to handle. In other words, I consider that part of the guard also part of the handle. The guard is 3/8 inch thick. I'll try to video how I do this soon.

A video of the process would be a tremendous help and greatly appreciated. I'll definitely be looking for that one
