Simply beautiful work!
Do you sell knives, or just make them for yourself?

Hey nice grindin!! I like the designs a lot too. 
The hand rubbed satin finishes on a few of them? That is tasty!! You didn't do that in 7 seconds flat. heeheheh
 What is the scale wood on the folder? And man I bet the Japanese blade can't weight 1/4 ounce, there sure isn't much steel left in that blade!  Really good job!
  You spent some time on that sweet little sculpture too.
 If I had a smilie for two thumbs up, you'd be gettin it.
  yours Scott

Lerman,

  Very nice work!!  It is obvious that you have put alot of care and a great many hours of work into each of your knives.  Send us the link when you start selling.  I, for one, would be interested in buying some of your work.

  Jim
