Well I've posted about every thing I've taken pictures of so far Darrel..., but here's a Kris-from-Chris I'm not sure if I ever posted...
 Cocobolo dovetailed inserts.... __________________ Pete Johnston ~~> ExamonLyf@aol.com "There is no greater wisdom.., than [KINDNESS]" "Hunters seek what they [WANT].., Seekers hunt what they [NEED]"

A couple more profiles...Kuhkri & Scimitar. These have nice Ironwood inserts but I can't find the darn pictures of the wood..
  True false edge on the Kuhkri..., not a swedge. __________________ Pete Johnston ~~> ExamonLyf@aol.com "There is no greater wisdom.., than [KINDNESS]" "Hunters seek what they [WANT].., Seekers hunt what they [NEED]"

I don't think I posted this one..., but ya won't see this profile floating around too much.... 8o
This was an "orphan" not purchased by the customer that ordered it. Got it a while back. "Hybrid Scimitar"??? or ~~~> your guess is as good as mine... :confused: Chris and I call it "The Gargoyle"...  I *think* this may be the heaviest 4.25" bladed Custom Balisong I own. 9.1 ounces if my memory is correct. It's a handful! __________________ Pete Johnston ~~> ExamonLyf@aol.com "There is no greater wisdom.., than [KINDNESS]" "Hunters seek what they [WANT].., Seekers hunt what they [NEED]" Last edited by ExamonLyf; 08-05-2003 at 03:18 PM.

Everyone has seen this knife.., I'm just not sure if I posted this particular shot (at this angle). This is "Ivory"..., of "Ebony and Ivory"....5.25" Split Elephant Ivory Inserts..., and a modfied version of the old "Delta Raider" profile PCC/BM used to do....
Really gorgeous knife!

That's about it without taking more pictures. I'll do Marlowe, Dobruski.., the brothers Lala (Korth).., Ikoma, Guinn, Davidson, Perrin, Elishewitz, Crawford, Erickson, Turnbull, Whitmore, Salley, Nolan..., Largin, Cook, Smith & Bolton..., Noel Lanusa, Danny Chua.., and oh yeah....Mr. Ralph himself
..., when I find the time to not embarrass myself photographically. I probably forgot someone.., so I apologize in advance.I also have a number of really interesting designs from the Bugtai family (Pardy and Rommel - AKA "Pabu Knives"). <~~ PABU.., represents PA = Pardy.., and BU = Bugtai. Pardy (the Dad), is up in Oregon by Chuck (Portland actually)..., and Rommel lives down here about 30 minutes from me. Rommel is actually doing 90% of the work now, as Pardy's health is not good. Chuck Gollnick also usually has some of their work on his site for sale if anyone wants to take a look to get an idea what they make. Click..... -HERE-. I've got some unusual stuff they've done.., but never photographed it. I will when I can..., some fun stuff. I suppose at some point we should also do the "Tribute to Jody" photo-shoot and have a thread with just Jody-Songs That would be sort of fun. I would have to know quite a bit in advance to take part though..., as my ability to take pictures is limited by both time and skill.Here's one I really like by Ken Steigerwalt. I posted it a while back somewhere (forget where)..., but Ken only made (1) Balisong ever, and this is it...., classic! This knife is so #### wellmade it's hard for me to believe he never made one previously..., but his reputation for quality is well known. It's also not hard on the eyes.... Beautiful Long Clip Bowie..., Damasteel etched 7-9 times with muriatic acid and hand rubbed. Inserts are Mastodon Ivory. Not bad for a "beginner"...  Edited to add: Duane Weikum took the picture of Ken's knife..., thanks D!

 Sorry, couldn't resist it! Anyway, don't forget this thread, and I'll (hopefully) have something to show you soon. Just hope the bloody Postal Service (or anybody else, for that matter) drops my package off where they're not supposed to again.
