Great job Tony. For me red with gold web is the best out of these four.

cougar337 · #87

Man, they are all great but I just LOVE the Iron Wood!!!

these two are for a forum member who joined just so he go send me a PM. He has no posts yet, maybe these pics of his finished knives will get him to say hello :) the first one is a Blue Mammoth Tooth Kopa, i really like the color on this one.

this next one is a Redwood Burl Kopa, this was a plan B unfortunately, his first choice turned out too hard to work with. i think the burl is a suitable substitute.

and lastly a lil hint of what my next kopa will look like :D

is this gonna be a full scale Kopa or a thin polished SS ? the way it is now reminds me of an old original Worker and a Economy.

those new ones are beautiful as usual Tony, soon we will need a Kopa family pic from you

Tony,
I have no idea what was the first choice, but plan B looks gorgeous.

I will echo Roman's sentiments - that Redwood Burl is exquisite !!!

That 'new' Kopa looks like something I was coincidentally about to ask you actually ! Gret minds must think alike.... if you are thinking what I am thinking ?! :p

it will be a full scale kopa, Will and thanks for the compliments. i will get a a family pic once i fill the drawer in my tool box, 4 left to go, 36 in a tray :D . All the doubles are in a different drawer. After that i will be done making them for myself and moving on to different models.

i just finished this one up. My son's favorite color is orange and he asked me to make one for him...lol. He can have this one in 20 years or so :D , maybe ill give it to him when he gets married, an orange kopa goes with a black tux, right? :p ok enough talk, i present to you Orange Sherbert Kopa

i saw a dead spider in my photobox so it seemed necessary to throw him in a picture :D

Fantastic work Tony, I saw your "Kopa pimping" tag... didn't realize you were actually pimpin' Kopas. They all look fantastic!
