The first is just a run of the mill TL-29 mod. Teardrop bolsters, jigged amber bone, bar shield, swedge cut into blade.

This other one was a GEC 42 lockback. Burlap micarta and fish shield. Before and after...

My word!! Those are very nice. The TL looks like a completely different knife. Love the fish shield on the GEC, that one's "Off-the-Hook"... ::tu::

Yes, I have in the past. Doesn't come up as a request that often, and can be tricky to work with.

If Case can't repair a pearl whittler I sent them, I will PM you to see if you're interested. It's an oldie so not sure what they're gonna say.

Very nice work Glenn. The TL-29 is stunning, and I love burlap micarta.

Really nice work Glenn! ::tu::
The TL-29 is a beautiful transition into the teardrop; the bone looks great.

I love the fish shield on the GEC!
