I love that stag handle. Looking at it is like looking into a camp fire. Beautiful knife.

Great job Lin,
This will be a Christmas present and I know you  have been swamped. Thank you for fitting it in. As usual the knife looks awesome, and more importantly the process of working with you is even better.
I hope you and yours have a wonderful Christmas and festive new year.

Thanks again bud,
LP
