True beauties, both. I am a huge fan of hand made folders. I know the only way I will get one is to make one for myself. Right now I am not even close to good enough to try. OUTSTANDING!!!

Kevin, those are outstanding!  Very impressive!  I like the green dyed scales, look almost like a deep dark Jade.

Kevin, I used to use only files, but have gone to a drimel for some of the work. Arrowheads are the hardest for me, but once you figure it out it gets easier. Keep'em coming

Outstanding folder, It might only be your second one, but I think you have it nailed.
