Frank-
That has to be one of the nicest knives I've seen you make to date! The fit & finish is superb - I can almost read what kind of camera you used. I'm not sure what you intended, but to me it looks like the perfect camp knife. I suppose it would work great in the kitchen too... if only I knew where that room was. The ironwood looks great and should hold up to some solid use. I like the way you changed the handle shape from the original drawing - it probably fits much more comfortably in the hand. Overall great work! -dr __________________ www.ruhligknives.com "The choice isn't between success and failure; it's between choosing risk and striving for greatness, or risking nothing and being certain of mediocrity." - Keith Ferrazi

Frank,
Looks great as usual! It seems like you have the mirror polish technique down pat. __________________ Johnathan Mitchell
