Fantastic Show!

May we see that one half open please?

Here ya are Jon, as promised the deluxe congress half open. Enjoy!

Thanks Wood-Guy, that Congress has a whole lot of goodness going on.

Here is how this Ebony Spear earns its patina

Here's one of the new 73L's in ebony dress: Sweet!

Nice streaks on that ebony Barry! good looking knife.

I picked up another knife on a trade today, #12 toothpick in snakewood, serial #31. She's a beaut!

Bullet End Jack

Wow! That's a looker there Monk! I like the dark strip across both sides.

I took some more shots of this beauty outside with some natural light.
I figured it would bring the character out a little more...
#73 scout cocobolo wood.

WOW!! If I could find some cocobolo like that I "wood" be all over it. Just stunning

Thanks blademan. You don't see em' like that everyday that's for sure!

Nice looking wood. The cocobolo seems to come in many shades. For those wanting an ebony Northfield lockback, I notice some of the cocobolo would probably do the trick. I'm trying one on for size.

I was fortunate to snag this one on a trade. #45 roughneck in tulip wood 1 of 6.

WHOA!!! Extremely nice wood on that one Ryan, big ole CONGRATS on that!!!

IM

Thanks Trevor! I am very pleased with this one, not a whole lot out there in tulip wood.
Now I have a matching set... One with single blade and one with double.

Yet another pickup from a trade... I know I know... A lot of bocote lately... that's ok though! I remember the first time i saw one of this pattern with the blades all fanned out in the display case of the factory at great eastern, awesome!!! (Yep, it was bocote too! )
#56 weaver jack in exotic Mexican bocote.

These came in the other day... #56 in ebony wood 1 of 2, #57 king wood wrangler 1 of 8, #73 in cocobolo rosewood serial # 18, & yet another #53 in snakewood serial #013.

Nice haul,Ryan !!!! ________really likin' that #56 Ebony Jack,with End-Cap !!!

Thanks monk! she's a real beaut!

here is a tidioute white owl in ebony that came the other day

Very nice ebony white owl bd8b! nice sized knife, also good for the pocket.

thanks wood-guy i like the size at 3 1/2 not bad and rides good in the lfp

I finally was able to track one of these down, a 2008 #53 stockman in stainless... hard little bugger to find, I think this is the first one I've seen out there. here it is, great looking knife!

Boy, things sure have been quite around these parts lately...
Kinda strange... Hopefully this will bring things back to life a little bit? I acquired this one recently, pretty unique piece and a first to the collection. #89 in clear figured snakewood 1 of 8 serial #1.

Here's a few since I last posted...

And 2 SFOs
