First one I've fileworked in a while. Finished this one up the other day in stabilized amboyna burl with some thorny vine filework

I'd have to agree with the others, that's a pretty nice piece of work, I'd certainly like to have it in my pocket. :)

Very clean and elegant looking knife. Even with the file work, it's not overdone.

Very nice!

Nice work Kaleb, (as usual)! ::tu:: ::tu::
I do like your vine filework it is different from most guys' & the thorns make it even more unique.
