Oh man...that really is nice. ::drool::
Might have to consider getting one in Damascus as well as one in 154CM. ::hmm::

I put together a nice group shot of my 5 different Tuna Valley sunfish knives. There are still some other handle material prototypes out there I'd like to find some day.

A lot of great pictures from that show! I'm really annoyed after all this time that I could not attend it myself and get some of these pictures for my personal gallery. I was wondering though how I could turn some back and white photos of mine recently with some great knifes from the 60s in to color. One of the easiest apps I found to use for black and white to color was imagecolorizer. I loved the little filter tweaks it had when choosing the brightness. Definitely worth the attention. I might start playing with some old family photos next.

I'm not usually wild about Damascus, I think the Pakistanis ruined it for me, but that is some sweet Damascus. ::tu:: ::tu::

Finally got an Amber Stag Phoenix Jack...been waiting (impatiently) for this model to be released and as soon as I saw this one I grabbed it without a second of hesitation. Really love this pattern. :D Now, if I can be as lucky and score a Mammoth Ivory PJ as soon as they're released, I might very well consider my knife collection complete once and for all. ::nod:: ::skeptic::

That is some absolutely amazing stag Q. I haven't got my hands on one of those yet, but hope to soon. Congrats on that knife.
