    Beautifully done Butch. It looks very lethal.

    Man, that is some clean hand sanded work Butch. I like the guard, and the handles really go well with the satin finish. Excellent job.
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    Wow is that nice! I have been a knife collector for many years-had to stop (ok, slow down) because of lack of room for display cases and the shock I went into when I did inventory and found out how much I'd spent on them over the years. That would look very nice in my display case with the German daggers I have. Perhaps you should sell it to me for cheap?

    Beautiful work.
    What sheath option will you use for this beauty? i could actually easily picture it clipped inside an Executive Lunchbox {that's Australian for "briefcase"}
