Began with the best of intentions to get done reasonably quickly. Stuff happens and I emphasize STUFF happens so knives took a LONG break. Eyeballs changed along the way so seeing up close made the tasks more challenging. A good 10+ year gap from the days we pursued the shows. Was happy the machines still ran.
With ivory the way it is, I tossed even the mammoth stuff and went with a contemporary handle scale.
A grab shot with the little Canon G15 P&S for the photo challenge. Canon 580 EX flash with 8x8" softbox attached.
