Dovo BQ in Hunter Orange, and a Boker Extra Hollow in Micarta

Here are the first two I've finished this weekend. The BQ is mine, and was inspired by a set of Hunter Orange from Undream a couple years back. I was just waiting for "the day". It's got Niag hardware to keep with the streamlined look.

The Boker is from Dllandry, and is part of a set (I just haven't finished it's twin yet). She's in Ivory paper micarta, and is complete with brass pins and a honey ox wedge. Buffed out to near mirror. I really like this one. I'll finish the twin this week most likely.

Thanks for looking

Nice, elegant scales, lovely work.

Both of those look great. Scales are well suited for those blades.

Very well executed, I like the slimmed down look with the Micarta/G-10's myself too.. seems you have to get them near 1/10" to get the flex right and then everything seems to just come together :tu

Sweet! Nice job!

Yup..I agree. The g10 being dense I found pretty heavy. I probably could thin these out a bit more. I'll take a few shaves and see. The balance feels pretty good in the hand so far.

The orange is nice but the ivory micarta is beautiful. Excellent work on both.

Both are wonderful. Excellent work!
