Thanks Stevie, it has been a pain to find the right stag to do this project, India has stopped exporting it. Whew, Ron

Mind???? Heck no!!! WOW!!!! And, since you are having email problems, just in case my response to your last email doesn't get through, hope you don't mind me posting it here as well...

I don't "like" it Ron, I flat-out LOVE it!!!!!!!!!! It looks gorgeous!!!! Great job!!!

As for the pin placement, I'm attaching <A HREF='http://home.earthlink.net/~paulberetta/ ... ian.htm'>a link</A> to the "Photoshop job" that I did to get an idea of how the Persian would look in stag. Something close to the pin placement on that would be fine, but I realize the lightening holes may affect exact placement of the front one. Money order went out Monday. Thanks again for all your time and effort on this project. Rest assured good words and more work will follow.
...........

That FB looks neat too, email me the price when you have a chance.

Ron, your work continues to amaze! Paul, you are a lucky man -- I just handled a "stock" Persian for the first time the other day, so now I'm TWICE as jealous of yours!!!

Sorry to hear you've been a victim of Yahoo's "upgrade", Ron. I've had a number of friends with the same complaints -- it sounds like a mess.

Also, I don't know if this only happens on my computer or if it affects other people too, but when I try to visit your web site using the link you've posted here, I just get a blank page. My computer wants the ".html" on the end of the whole thing, like:

<a href="http://www.geocities.com/joyce43_c/RONSKNIFESHOP.html" target=blank>http://www.geocities.com/joyce43_c/RONS ... OP.html</a>

Keep up the great work, and I can't wait to see more of it!

Paul, I'm so glad you like it buddy, I'll place the pins tomorrow, it's close to 100 in the shade here right now and I needed a Bud lite and my central air <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>.

Real bone is finicky to work with, the only way to finish the final shape is by slow hand work around those corners.

Tim here's the whole url pal and thanks for the kind words, it's a steep learning curve to make things look just right and I still have to do more work by hand than machine but sometimes that's part of the joy of my work.

Some can get to my page by just typing in RONSKNIFESHOP@geocities.com

I'm soon gonna try and find a better web host. but right now 90% of what I make goes back into the business. Ron

Yep. The full URL works on my computer. Thanks, Ron.

The fact that you do most of your work by hand makes the knives more unique and special in the end anyway, I think. More "custom" than a big shop. Good luck with the business. Keep posting pics on the forums and I'm sure you'll get all the referrals you can handle!

I'm also shopping for new web hosts, so if I find a good one, I'll shoot you and "e"...
