M. Fong- Actually finished some

[M&J]

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.

It's a great pleasure to see a new post from you, Michael. Great little knives too!

Welcome back.

Thanks Don! Felt like this was the first time again and almost kept one as a new carry piece. Alas, they were sent onto a dealer so that they can be enjoyed. One is still here because the voids need to be filled. When I showed it around at the Plaza Show the comment heard was how poor a layup it had with all the voids.

A proper shot with the big camera:
