Beautiful knife Lin. I really like the handle combinations, great looking stag and butt cap, and the work on those spacers really sets it off.

You know you're good when no words are needed in the post.   :)   Beautiful as usual, but your "usual" never gets old.  I really love the way the two-toned stacked leather spacer (I believe that's what it is) matches and sets off the rest of the handle.

Thank u guys.

Curt, the layers are African Blackwood. I ripped it in thin (maybe 3/16 ) layers and turned each 90 degrees to the previous one and glued it together. The light is always reflecting off end grain and side grain no matter the way you hold it.
