Quit it Shawn, yer makin' me blush!
How's life treating you buddy?
I just heard from my dad. He says this knife is a "maybe" for the auction. It's a nice copy of a classic Woodcraft blade.
He still has time to come up with something else, but I have to tell you guys, if he puts this one up you'll be bidding against ME!

Yup, dad has really stepped up his knifemaking abilities since he retired - and since I started making them! :D

Yep, a pail will work, Calvin - LOL. About all I can ever do on knives is make an opening bid or something, and then get the hey out of the way - but with a pail full you might get to go
almost
all the way to the last bid :D

OK, so I need a little input from you guys. The pic below shows where the knife is right now and the original design sketch I did for this year's knife. As you can tell, somthing is still missing.
I was planning on doing a silver wire inlay on the knife, but was wondering if I should leave it alone and just round things over and finish it up as is? The walnut burl (thanks bbassi!) is going to finish up really well!
Whatcha think?

I like the way you have planned on the drawing. That looks like a good idea. Wish I could do a knife like that. I am working on my first one now. Will learn to forge someday when I can find the brick to make a forge. Really nice knife, good the way it is, but I think that inlay will set it off nicely.

I think I found one to bid on no matter what you decide! But if you are building it specifically for me, I would love the silver inlay.

I was looking at some at B'more this week end (oggling only) and those Burls sure do finish up beautifully - no doubt about it. I think it's going to be special either way - to whoever wins it. Since it's not a custom job it should be the Craftsman/Artist's choice - IMO

It will go too rich for my bidding blood, but if I had DEEP pockets, I would want the inlay!!!!!
Legolas would be proud to carry that one. WOW!!! WHAT A KNIFE!!!!

Jeremy, Either way it's just plain AWESOME! But the silver with add a little contrast to the handle and really "set it off"..
You continue to impress me with every knife.....

I guess it's time to go see if sliver inlays into walnut as easily as brass does into maple! Thanks for the encouragement guys! Just what I needed!
John, did I promise you some high temp bricks for a forge. I had three people ask for 'em, and can't remember how many I sent out :confused: Lots of stuff has been slipping the mind the last few months (7 to be exact) 9-1/2" weeks to Dday! My wife really doesn't like it when I refer to her due date as "Dday" :D

Send it to me first Jeremy, I'll let you know if it needs the inlay.......promise....
Awesome looking knife as is, anything else you do will "just" add to a beautiful knife.
