blade5, that's a beauty! Sante Fe Stoneworks does some great work. I have a SFSW Delica and a SFSW Kershaw Leek. Love em! Congrats on yours.

Holy crap! being a black yojimbo lover, this one really hits home. Did you have that done custom, or is SFSW doing black yojimbos now?

Excellent looking knife.

I'm guessing the vertical lined background of that blind played **** with the auto-focus on your camera.

We could all use some more pics of that beautiful knife!

Very nice! I particularly like that they did both sides. Just have a couple questions. How's the weight compared with a regular Yo? That's always my concern with stone on larger knives. Are the black bands Jet?

It does add some weight, but being a big guy the stone makes the knife more hand filling which I like. I've always liked Santa Fe's work, but never really liked only having one side done. Having both sides done, gives the knife a more balanced look and feel. Sorry about my bad pics, I'm better with power tools than cameras, but yes the bands are black jet.
