Thanks for the comments guys. I have made knives in Dads shop off and on since about 96 or so. Just started full time this year. Going good so far.

Rich, very nice work!
Your grind lines are very unique. I confess that at first, I thought that perhaps this was an error, but I see that all of your knives share this trait. I quickly noticed how the grind line at the top of the bevel flows back into the belly of the grip--very unique indeed. I've never seen that technique. It really pulls the eye through the whole blade in a clever way.

Andrew,
Randall Knives popularized that style of grind. I use it a lot myself and agree that Rich did a nice job with it ..... |

Now that you mention it, it is 'Randalleque' isn't it?
Cool. Thanks for the education. __________________ Andy Garrett https://www.facebook.com/GarrettKnives?ref=hl Charter Member - Kansas Custom Knifemaker's Association www.kansasknives.org "Drawing your knife from its sheath and using it in the presence of others should be an event complete with oos, ahhs, and questions." |

Thanks guys. I try to get better with every one I do. Sometimes I get caught up in keeping it easy but I like to push myself to try new things as well.
