Nice stuff Dan.  As usual, they get a "WOW".

They are outta the park, Dan. The beads add such a nice touch to them.

I'm going to be at the Blade Show the 7th, 8th, 9th of June. Anyone going to be there? Please try to find me if you do. I 'know there's tons of tables but keep looking. I'll be near the Alabama Damascus Tables

Here's a few I made to take

Those are, as usual, terrific looking knives and I like the scales.

Been a while since my last post. I had a heart attack the last week in September. Dr. thought I wasn't going to make it. But 4 stints about 1 inch long each and I'm back to normal. Tons of meds and diabetic now too. Oh well.....

Here's one that I just finished. 416 layer Damascus hunter style with brass, blue and turquoise spacers. The OAL is 9 7/8 with a 5 1/4 blade. Sheath will be leather of course

Have you ever made an 'ugly' knife? :shrug:    If you have, I've never seen it. :cheers:

Glad to hear you're back in the shop and on the mend! :banana:

This is my Hunter style with Elk antler. The knife is 9 1/8 OAL with a 5 inch blade. The steel is ADS Damascus with some sweet elk antler. Brass bolsters are dovetailed with 2 mosaic pins.






Here's a Hunter with awesome blue Box Elder



This one I call Elk Scalpel. It's AEB-L stainless steel

As usual Dan you create some beautiful knives.  Pieces of art really.

I like the one you called the elk scalpel.  It looks like a great game knife.
