I wasn't sure how the bone would look, but I think it came out pretty good. Thomas likes it, that's what counts!

72 for TAB2YOU
Thomas is a big fan of the green pick bone I was using, so he sent me a 72 to work on. Here are some pics of the knife I made for him...

Another spectacular job Glenn. I especially like what you did with the bolsters.

Fellers, Glenn did a fantastic job on this knife, and it sits among my favored to carry. As I accumulate more knives, the less I carry, as I am finding my favorites. Among those are all of Glennbad's customs.
The man is a genius.
