Flask is looking amazing Bruce! And as for the nipples... Custom Bump nipples would look fantastic!

Great attention to detail Mark!

My thumbs bend far back beyond 'straight' as well. I believe this bodes well for me.

Gonna have to keep an eye on this one... I love the frame-handle construction.

Beautiful work!

Must be something about living in Walla Walla that makes yall predestined to do great WIPs... Beautiful work Roger!

Thanks Josh! I'll be adding a clip later on, but it is finished other than that. Except for a name. I have a bit of a running convo on FB to help me pick a name. so far, nothing has grabbed me. Dent - my own idea... like Harvey Dent (Two-face) since the scales are different on each side...

Excellent words to keep a newbie like me motivated.

Thanks Mark. I agree... I've been making fixed blades and folders at random for almost 2 years, and FINALLY I finished something that just jumped out at me and said "ok, this is it... you need to do this one over and over".

I am so excited about this knife, that I am going to use this as my platform for the future. One-off knives are amazing and wonderful, but it is hard for people to recognize you as a maker until you have a flagship (IMHO). I will be taking this same design up to a 4" blade and down to a 2.25"...

WOW! what a great WIP! I can't wait to see the final product, but I love following along on these.

Bruce, I'm sorry to hear about you mom... That's one bridge I've not yet had to cross.

Congrats guys!

Boy do I know THAT feeling...

There are plenty of Strider SMF's that are chisel ground, so I don't really see any reasons NOT to use it. :) With 1/8" or 5/32" steel, there is plenty of room to keep the grind off the spine, but still get a very tight angle on the main bevel.

Very cool information, and I really hope you can reuse the steel and try the full blade again.

Beautiful piece! Looks very well proportioned to be a folder as well.

I knew that name sounded familiar... Beautiful knife!

Thank you Dwane. I've already got 2 more started... :) One based on this knife, and another "funky fantasy folder" that my 8yo son helped design... LOL!
