Prarieboy, got the knife today. Love the sheath with the copper rivets. It goes really well with the knife (top knife on page seven of this thread).  
Thanks, Eric

Got mine from Prarieboy too.  There's a pic on page 7 of this thread, nice trailing point hunter with contoured elk handles.  Solid manly feel to it, can't wait to get it bloody.  Thanks!

I got my knife in the mail today from Skullworks.  Man what a nice knife.  He posted photos of the three he made on page 9.  I received the zebra wood handled one.  This knife will definitely see some use.  Not only is the knife great but the sheath is top notch.

I will try and get some photos of it again and post them.  My batteries are dead in my camera tonight.  Thanks again skullworks.  This knife is a real dandy.

I have received both knives, 1 from Mike Gerard (Owlbait) and one from David Ricke.Man o man has Tradgang smiled upon me.Two very fine knives.Mike Gerards is a very fine damascus blade with a swept belly and a very nice pinned whitetail handle with a track burned into the bottom..He also made a heavy duty sheath as well.Daves is an out of this world full tang beauty with what appears to be cocobolo scales and yellow spacers.It is a knife which I wish I had made myself.It is straight outa my dreams.The horizontal sheath tops it off.Also everything that I would want in a sheath had I custom ordered.Sorry fellas no pics yet but soon to come.
              Thank You, Izzy

Thanks Izzy,
I received your knife today. I wish I had your skill of matching antler handle to blade length and have it blend and fit so well. Really like the damascus blade and brass guard as you can tell from the one i sent you. I won't promise pics but will try to get some.
Thanks for letting me participate,
Mike Gerard  owlbait

z-man,
    I got your knife today.  You did great on the handle,  nicely shaped, neat brass pins-- fits the hand well. I'll post a pic later today. Thanks, I really like it. I think it'll work great for skinning or butchering. Larry

I got a box from MYSTIKBOW today. It contained an awesome antler and obsidian blade knife. It will go nicely with the rest of my trad collection. Picture is the top knife from MYSTIKBOW on page nine of this thread.
THANK YOU! z-man

Here's another pic or Prairieboy's knife.  I like that the clip near the point is unsharpened so there's a nice curved place to rest a finger for small tasks.  The handle is nice and wide and fills the hand for heavy stuff.  So far it's just seen duty on veggies in the kitchen.  Wife likes it also, but too bad...this ain't gonna be no kitchen knife.

Well here's a picture of the knife I got from Skullworks.  He already posted photos of them (which are better than mine) but I thought I'd show it again.  Thanks again for the knife.  I hope to put it to good use.

Mine came from Butts yesterday.  Didn't have time for pictures last night.  Will try to get one and post by Monday.

I recieved a nice gift today when I got home. My knife from Dave Hiltz.     :bigsmyl:    He posted a picture of it on page 8. It's the cherry burl handled one. Thanks Dave, it's great! Check out the nice file work. There's an arrow on the tip!

Well I got my knife from Skullworks today.  Just a beautiful piece!  I got the one with the "spalted something" handle. LOL The picture below doesn't do it justice.  Thanks Skullworks!   I will put it to good use!
