I think they are terrible! I think you should let me confiscate all three.
I am kidding! That is great work! I like the simple smooth lined and scales designs. I also really like the snakewood and pivot pin.
Two thumbs up!

I used 25 coats of medium weight Cyanoacrylate (Super Glue). After every 2 coats, I would sand them down with wet/dry sandpaper, 220/320/400/800/1500/2000/2500/3000 grits. This gets most if not all of the imperfections left by the glue seeping into the wood. Not only that, it shines up real nice with a coat or two of MAAS after I'm done. It takes awhile but I believe it's worth it! Thanks for the interest! Take care! Originally Posted by SiRed8
