    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!

    What he said. Love the snakewood!

    Beautiful!!

    I really like wood scales. Can you describe how you finish the wood?

    Thank you!

    Awesome Ramon! What did you finish the Snakewood with? Danish? Tung?

    Like the pivot pin used as well. Very inspiring work mate!

    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!
