I've been thinking about that,

Dog, and I realized I was very wrong regarding Smokey Robinson as the artist,

deep down I think I knew it was somebody like The Four Seasons, but as I said my disco knowledge is sorely lacking so they never came to mind. It sounds like you've been quite adamant about your music what with all that info about who did "Working my..." etc., that's another area I haven't had much interest in.
Those are great shots of that Doe you captured along with the lush forest in the background, your photo skills are shining!
I really like the looks of that Colt, too bad it has more than the one spear-point blade, IMO!
How's the snake bite?
Mark, you are right about the blades...

I would prefer a long spey point as the second blade truth be told... sometimes on a long cut I need to roll up the tip/point so to speak...or also a sheep's foot is a useful tip...
As for my hand, well I think it is getting better, but my friends are always a bunch of worry warts and saying "You need to see a doctor" I have some numbness in the tips of fingers and a little decolorization, but otherwise, it doesn't seem too bad.

PLEASE tell me you photoshopped that picture, Dog, cuz if you didn't you NEED TO SEE A DOCTOR!!!
Seriously buddy, that looks like your fingers are gonna peel back all the way to your palm and you're gonna end-up with a very deformed hand.
This is REALLY bugging me, so please reply ASAP!!!

Mark, thanks for your concern... I am going to take a couple of aspirin and call the doctor in the morning.

This thread hadn't seen a reply for a little while. I may not comment much, but rest assured that I enjoy each and every picture.

And if all goes according to plan, I'll have some photos to add soon!

Dang GSP, missed your mishap. Hope it's healing and your getting better. That looks bad to my untrained eye. We're pulling for you as always.

Great pics again, and some cool knives. Love that fixed in the last pic with the wood handle. Beauty. Also wondered what kind of wood you whittled that spoon from? Been thinking of making the boss a nice wooden spoon but wanted something softish and easier to carve, preferably with some good grain like yours. Thanks for any tips you have on woods.

Most knife photos are taken fairly close up to the knife. Naturally so given the size of knives. But Ike, I found your long perspective background very soothing.
