Your Yellowhorse and Santa Fe Stoneworks knives are just gorgeous, Paul! Truly works of art, each one. I always love seeing pictures of them here.

Has anyone seen my jaw? I seem to have dropped it on the floor somewhere.

I know how you feel! Those all some seriously gorgeous knives.

I usually don't do purdy knives, but I've modded a couple that got a bit more purdy. I think most of you have seen them already though.

Nice, David! That Kiwi 4 looks phenomenal with those polished and contoured scales. I would love to see something like that make it back into the production lineup.

[GiftedMisfit]

Loving the kiwi Evil.

I don't have a lot of traditionally beautiful knives, but I think these are pretty.

It's money in the bank for Spyderco, at least depending on how it changes the original cost. I think it would have sold much better this way.

All my custom scales, except the Ikuchi's are from Andrej "Suingab". Excellent service, and fit & finish equals OEM. (The Ikuchi scales were made by an instrument maker friend of mine)

How about the swedge on my Rex Native LW. It’s a work of art. :spyder:
