Steve Lindsay reports the follwoing re. the photo:

That overall picture of big bear I sent you showing the blade was full of reflections. I’m not setup to photograph knives this large and I had reflections all over the blade. I emailed that picture to Tiz Pozzobon @ engravingarts.com and he did some of his magic with photoshop and took the reflections out. So the photo credit should also go to Tiz Pozzobon at: http://www.engravingarts.com

Words fail me!! Thanks for sharing!!

Hey, is this Steve Lindsay originally from Holdrege Nebraska by any chance?? I grew up with a Steve Lindsay there and heard he was a jeweler and engrave now. That would be too wierd!!!

Doug.
Here is a link to his site. www.lindsayengraving.com (http://www.lindsayengraving.com)

There is a pic of him somewhere. I bet Steve knows where he is from.

Steve is something else. He spent a lot of time on this BB.

And, Steve used to live in Holdrege, before he got married and moved to Kearney, as I recall, anyway. (How do you make that "Twilight Zone" music? "Dee, do, deedoo, dee doo.")
Hey, I'm no musician! And no, I don't have a dog named "Dee."

Wow, that knife would be beautiful without the engraving. The engraving just makes it even better.

Now that is a knife I would like to see in person, photographs just aren't good enough....

I know Steve!! This is so wierd! Man he does some good work!!! I'll have to drop him a line.

Stunning! Where the heck did you ever find the pearl big enough?

Let us know, Mondt, how the reunion goes.

The owner, Dave Ellis, located the MOP for this knife. I'm not sure where. It took a while.

It was good Steve.

Mr. Lindsay remembered me and my brother and my sisters. He lives just a little ways away from my brother who is a gunsmith and dealer back in Neb. His father ran the local jewelry store when I was growing up.

You never know when you may run into your past!

That's neat. I'm happy that you made the connection.

Steve & Karla and his parents are great folks.

Sometimes one just takes your breath away.WWOWW!
I like that!
