This is a really special and interesting motive - one almost has to "stop" and look at the pic, in order to find out what´s going on here... looks like either the knife, or the steel plate it looks to be attached to would be magnetic...

At first I thought the image was just rotated 90 degrees, then I realized it was not.

Re: Spyderco Photo of the Week Contest!
I did some brain storming on this shot . It’s so hard to come up with something unique with so many great shots that are entered in the contest . The old windmill is close to a hundred years old . I found it on a curb and took home and had son-in-law take to Case International Harvestor to shot blast, weld , and paint . I then added a grease zirk at head to quiet rotation . Probably repaint again next year . I had been using the Salt in back so decided not to clean it up and do the shot . I already have a shot tucked away for next week that will give everyone a little chuckle . Thanks for making my day . MG2

Re: Spyderco Photo of the Week Contest!
Sorry I'm a bit late on announcing winners, but here they are!
1st place goes to anycal for his great photo of the Ikuchi. It's a model you don't often see even around here, and those carbon fiber scales really make it look classy!

Second place to Ramonade for his cool and colorful Chaparral photo! More of an unusual background and composition; I like it!
Congrats to everyone else! It was a hard choice, there were some really good ones this week!

Re: Spyderco Photo of the Week Contest!
Thanks Connor! It is a perfect knife for a classy occasion. Although those who know me may argue that I have no need for such knife
Line them up folks. There are a lot of great pictures scattered all over this forum. And, winter is here. Let's see some snow pics. It may be a while before I have a chance to see any, so would like to live vicariously...
