Group pic of my show knives

Here's a group shot of my knives for the show this weekend. I am attending the West Michigan Edge Show on Saturday the 19th. It's a small one day show but I had a little winter vacation planned to visit some family there and thought, why not take in the show.

Anyway, two of these knives I've had for a while, left over from other shows. The other five are new for this show. I also threw in a picture of the leather I made for them. Black or dark brown are the sheath options. The dark brown ones might need a little touch up here and there.

John,
What type of stamp did you use on the top two sheaths? Interesting pattern.

Hi Brad. The stamping is just a diamond and a little tiny round 'sunburst' thing I guess. Just the two stamps needed to make that pattern. It kind of reminds me of ostrich skin.
