Thanks for the kind words. Just about done with the last knife & sheaths. I will try and post pics tonight. Sure was fun, it makes one appreciate the price of a custom knife. Dave will be at Waterloo with a dispay and I`m going to tag along to help in his booth.

Great thread. I was lucky enough to get one of Dave's knives in the swap a couple of years ago. Great little hunter that I carry into the woods every time I head out.

Beautiful knife (actually knives as they are all great).  Wish I could afford to bid what this one is really worth.  Someone will be a very happy bidder.
