Thanks Giant11. I use just the 3x optical zoom on my Sony digicam; but for this kind of work the 6 megapixel setting and a photoshop tweak are my best friends. :D
While I was at it, shooting the Santa Fe Spydies. I realized that I by now had fullfilled my promise to get three Lavas for all occasions; regular carry/clipless carry/lefty carry. :D
Wouter,
Spectacular shots as usual. Your skills are awesome :p
I lke the Paua/ Abalone Delica very much, it is absolutely gorgeous. And don't get me started on the Lava ! Beautiful ! I must get a couple more for myself.
Wonderful pictures Wouter.
Lately i noticed that I like SFSW knives with serrations much more than PE.
Your wife's knife is the beauty. Is she going to EDC it?

Actually, I'm in the process of negotiating 'sharing rights' on the SFSW Delica. :D She will carry it, as would I. But her favorite knife to date is the Police Tieclipit, followed by the blue almite Navigator. They clip easier to a lining in a purse.

All I can say It’s a Work of Art (both knives and pictures)!
Thank you for sharing.
Cricket would be my favorite of the bunch.
What’s yours, Wouter?

The MOP Kiwi, it was my engagement gift. After that, I like the Delica best with the Cricket a close third. If the Cricket would have a tip-up clip, it would be second.

Love the Paua/malachite(?) SFSW Delica4 .... a lotta bling factor there.... :p
My first reaction to the Delica was 'WOW', but it handles wonderfully and in the sunlight it actually becomes 'calmer' while reaviling even more colors, hard to explain. That knife will never be boring, that's for sure. :D
