Big Bear: MOP/Engraved


This knife looks too beautiful for words. Just look and enjoy. Engraving by Steve Lindsay.


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

If you want to see a information about videos made during this engraving project, go to: http://www.engravingschool.com/main.html

Doug.
Here is a link to his site. www.lindsayengraving.com

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

Re: Big Bear


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....

Re: Big Bear


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.

Re: Big Bear


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.
