I don't know why but every time I ship overseas I am in a half-state of panic until it gets where it's going!

Glad you like it, Ronnie.  If you like THAT one, wait til you get the hidden tang!!!!!

Thanks for being patient with me...hope it was worth it.

This might show the blade pattern.  Those are tough to photo!

The pattern on the blade just beautiful, and the "schwoop" sound the scabbard make when you put the knife to rest in it... :bigsmyl:  
Here is a pic from before and after:

That is a nice bore, and a very nice knife made from the bore.

Good luck with it.

Cool!
An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.
