Little drop point utility
Was able to get some knife time in and this one is about 90%.

Looks very nice Mike. I like the look of the carbon fiber scales and of course the mosaic pins. I have some carbon fiber scales given to me by Dtec Dave and am thinking they'll go nice on a folder. I've heard the fibers are like fiberglas and can be quite irrating. How did you deal with that?
Cerritos CA eh? I grew up in Norwalk in the one-ways back in the 50's and 60's. Cerritos was Artesia and Dairy Valley, but where the valley was nobody seemed to know.lol __________________ Now it says Guru and it used to say Master.

Nice job on the carbon fiber grind! It's hard to keep it looking like an organized woven pattern--gets confused and random looking real easy if your not as careful as you obviously were.

I've seen pictures of the early days of Artesia and Cerritos. There are no remaining signs this was once cow and pasture land. Some of the old (huge) dairy homes remain but few would know. When mom dad bought this place it was one house over from the cow pasture. I remember the hay stacks, cows, flies and smell. The neighboring land was a strawberry field and chicken ranch. Those were the days. Thanks, keeping the lines organized is challenging especially on prior cuts to maximize material efficiency. The twill becomes completely random when rounded over, hard to discern that there is a diagonal pattern at all. I prefer the look of the 1x1 and this LVA type is great. The twill takes to much time to fill in voids or at least my cut is riddled with them. __________________ Mike |
