Re: Knife Photography
John perhaps you can explain something to me about your Canadian knife handle. Generally, the advantage of a knife handle that curves downward is that it enables the delivery of a more powerful downward strike. On the other hand, a handle that remains straight in alignment with the blade will move faster. What is it that the high Canadian handle facilitates? I've long wondered. Perhaps a sawing motion?

Re: Knife Photography
basser5, It is really hard to beat the flat light of an overcast sky. Very well done.

Re: Knife Photography
Nice shot basser!!
Greg.. Wait till you get there!!!
Garry.. I have not used this knife very much soo.. I did cut a pepperoni stick into slices.. You have to get used to the handle being above the blade and not in line.. I do believe it would be a great skinner where you would take sweeping cuts with it.. Again.. I think after a lot of use it would be 2nd nature in its use.. I am used to handle/blade being in line.. Boy.. I do hope this all makes sense!!!

I took pics of this New Grind peanut that I am selling and just liked the way the light reflected off the Grind

Re: Knife Photography
Calendar shot basser, looks professionally produced, good in the black and white.
Took a few shots of the different carries this week.
