Thanks, Dana. I appreciate your good words. The filework on the second knife is my favorite too.

I like the second best of all. But there is something about all that I like. Beautiful work.

Thanks, Lin. I really appreciate yours and Dana's words. I try to do something a little different every time, but come back to more standard knives that I feel are best designed for hunters. I have a couple of bowies I'm just about finished with that I'll post soon.

I admit to being a wood freak and that is just some outstanding stuff - all three!
