The last one is mine and knowing that Lin could see it is made for me to USE!; made me happy.  Scully didn't per cahnce pay for that?  LOL  I cut and dried the walnut, picked out the part of a larger piece with some character, but it took skullworks to turn into a usable item.  Thanks Lin for the compliment, I respect your work.  The hard part is waiting.  The rest were very pretty also.

Very nice work. I like the variety of shapes, gives plenty of ideas to steal  :)  Love the shape and handle of the fourth one but not crazy about the grind on the back of the blade, though if I had it I could probably learn to like it.
