Paul,

Now thats an awesome knife, a picture may tell 1000 words but that's one you have to have in hand to really appreciate.

Very NICE ::tu::

Paul,

I agree!! Haven't had one in hand yet but when Greg @TSA gets back I'll see what he has. No No No that one could never be an EDC. Well, then again I suppose if you were John Rambo it would work very well. Take care of that guy he's really nice. ::nod::

That is a beautiful knife.

I liked it so well that I searched around last night and was able to find one for myself.

Can't wait to see it in person.

Check out this MONSTER.

Yeah, this huge cocobolo whaler is a work of art for sure boggs. After oiling the joints,
it's a real smooth operator and fits great in the hand. Reminds me of a small machete.

The cocobolo is nice, but at least one of the previous examples is probably gonna get rehandled in stag. ::paranoid:: ::paranoid:: ::paranoid::
