I like it a lot Ron!
Really a well balanced design.
I'd like to see a pic of the completed knife when you get a chance.

Hi Tim .. thanks for your coments. I wont be able to show the entire knife . my customer just send me the bolsters which i like . it is easier to engrave the bolsters this way ..

Ron-

Man, you sure don't let any grass grow under your feet...

We've been back from the Virginia Show for 5 days and you're already posting killer stuff like this! 8o :p (Go ahead...Admit it, while we were in the motel room each night after the show,...every time I was zonked out and snoring away, you were probably busy at work planning out these bolsters!:D).

I really like this a lot. Gee, come to think of it this would look great as a replacement for the bolsters on one of my folders ;)
Your customer doesn't really need to have these back, does he? :lol

Dennis Greenbaum

Yeah baby! :smokin

:D Way to go Ron. This is a different style than I have seen you do. I like it a lot. I'd give you the big thumbs up icon but I have no idea how to get it up.:) :) :)

Ron

You just keep getting better. Keep on posting, you are an inspiration. By the way, did you ever post any pictures of the 1860 navy colt you took home from Reno two years ago?
