Fabulous quality there. I have read much on D'Holder. I hear he is not doing well health wise. ::tear:: A man we all can look up to. He has earned it.

I have been saving up some of his work of art too.
Here is one Schrade D'Holder Green Burled Maple.

I wated this one but missed it. His wife works on some too.

Not so. D is doing very well and working as diligently as ever.

D made two of these with one having gone to Schrade as a prototype for a knife that never got off the ground, so to speak.

Gold Micarta, OAL 5 5/16" Blade 2 9/16. A presursor to the "unfolder" and the later "Picker Sticker". Cute Lil'Bugger :-)
