This time it's all Karl's handiwork.

This one is one of Karl's take down handles too. I'm really excited to get this knife. Thanks Karl.

Pretty knife!  I'm not familiar with the maker but he does beautiful work!    :laughing:

A video for that knife:

When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.

I will post some pics soon. I am very happy with this knife, but I'm worn out from opening the box.  :biglaugh:

No special treatment 'cause it's you - everybody gets their knife that way!

I got to Lin's to go get my new "to me" anvil just after he opened the box. Great work Karl!! This was the first time I got to handle an Anderson Forge product. I must say that I am impressed. It showed me ways I can improve my knives. For that I am glad that I saw it. The take down construction is a study in precision.

I finally got to sit down and stare at it for a few minutes. I really like my knife Karl.
