Looks like it might be Spaulted something-or-nother. Mighty pretty all over including file work.

the wood on the knike is cherry burl that I cut from my land two winters ago.  The burl that was above this one was alot more red.  I really like the blonde color though.  I hope you like it!!!

Wow is right. Dave did a beautiful job on that one. Having seen it in person I know the pictures don't do it justice. (But I know that's probably true of all the knives posted so far.)
Awesome work everyone!   :notworthy:
Gotta get in on next year's swap. (If Ru will agree to mentor me.   :rolleyes:   )

I bet it looks equally sharp in a reddish color as well. I'm with you though Dave. I really like the looks of the blonde burl.

We'll I sent out a knife 11 days ago and haven't gotten any confirmation that the knife was recieved and haven't recieved a knife yet.  Should I contact someone or be more patient?  :bigsmyl:  Chad

Got my knife in this morning's mail, from Loyd Lippert. I love it! A really quirky piece.      :D    

     

     

My 3 dogs are looking at me with really worred expressionson their faces (one of 'em's hiding under the bed!) as I walk around the house with this in my hand & a manic grin on my face!      :bigsmyl:    
I wanna go hunting bears! (Wearing just this anna loincloth!   :D  )

Thanks Loyd!   :clapper:    :clapper:

Hmmmmmmmmmmm, haven't seen confirmation of my knife (sent) arriving yet either - but then with the floods, etc. all over the country, I suppose it may not be any wonder if there are delays. Then again maybe he didn't like my little "Gecko"   :(  .

I am also waiting on confirmation of one of my knives... and another is somewhere in the system.  

Thanks for all those who shared the pics and excitement of their knives!

Already planning and plotting for next year!

Yeah same here no confirmation yet but the post office tracking says it was delivered a week ago. I even sent an email through tradgang to the recipient and still nothing. Kind strange but I'll be patient a few more days before I panic about him being unhappy with it or something. Skippy

I have received knives from OconeeDan and Herkimerhunter.  Still waiting on one.  I will post pics when I have the last one.  I will say that I am pleased with both of the knives I have received.  I plan on putting them to good use when I move to Alaska at the end of this month.

I am also waiting on a reply on one of the knives I sent out. Tracking confirms that it was received. I sent a PM and I see that it was read but I haven't received a reply back.
I'm also waiting on one more but I received an e-mail last Thur. telling me that it's in the mail.  Can't wait!!    Great pics so far folks. Keep em coming.
I'm looking forward to next year already.
I reckon so
