very nice looking knife

 

[tgraypots]

sweet. I think I'm beginning to appreciate snakewood scales and handles.

 

[tk59]

I really like the look of it, Del. Can we see spine and choil shots? How tall is it at the heel?

 

[WildBoar]

I'm digging the blade profile. Really nice looking knife, Del!

35mm at the heel if I remember correctly, spine and choil shots on the next one, this one was a custom order and it is shipped.
Thanks,
Del

Just because I have long hair does not make me a hippy!

Then get a haircut! :razz:

 

[heirkb]

I really like that profile. Nice

 

[Burl Source]

Now that's a pretty petty (both of them)

Did you have any difficulties with the snakewood?
I have only used it once and I ruined it. But that was back when I was dumber than I am now.
Looks beautiful though.

I can get you a good deal on tie dyed shirts.

 

[Delbert Ealy]

Thanks, But I prefer black, and no I'm not a goth either, no piercings, no tats, no dark eye makeup, although I am a bit pale by nature and custom.

[Mike Davis]

and by black he means pink and green tye dye

 

[Delbert Ealy]

No pink, maybe a solid forest green once in awile.
Also sometimes a little blue.

You don't really expect us all to believe you on account of a single picture, do you? oke1:

 

[Delbert Ealy]

I am not vain, I don't go around taking pictures of myself all the time. It was the only picture I had on my computer at this time.
Its not like knifemaking is a star making career, I don't get followed around by paparazzi wanting to get a shot of me.

A few more pics of me taken by Mike, wearing black and green.

 

[tk59]

Well, in case you're a closet hippie, don't worry. We'll still love you.

 

[Eamon Burke]

A hippie is anyone who believes the world can be a better place than it is today. I may be a wierdo and have strange views, but I am no hippie.

I used to have long hair. But I was in a Thrash band.
