Might have been the angle the picture was taken at, but in the earlier rough assembly pic, I didn't think the handle and blade really worked together.  Looked like the stag had too much curve for that blade profile.  Boy am I glad I kept my mouth shut about it.  That turned out great.  By the way, it looks like Wednesday, June 4th is when I'll be coming by the museum.  Hope to get to meet you.

It's ok Matt. It has the maximum amount of curve in it that I like but it is a nice piece. I look forward to getting to visit with you.

Lin, that knife rocks. I have a difficult time coming up with the words.

Wow! We need a "drooling" smiley.
Hard to beat stag and steel for classic durability and style.

Another work of art, Lin. Everything flows just right, really like that butt cap combo.
