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.

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

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.

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