Don't mean to sound like an echo, but I agree with the other guys.  They both look great, but the ivory one is outstanding.  I do like the gaurd/spacer arrangement on the other one though.

Very, very nice.
When the last deer disappears into the morning mist,
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.

Those knives are outstanding. Could you share the specs with us? Inquiring minds want to know.

Cocobolo? That one really had me fooled. I really like that dark color and the grain is beautiful. Very nice pair of knives.

Excellent, excellent packages. I get a thrill out of seeing the progression in the craft that some TG knife forum frequenters have gone through. Top notch knives.
