Eye catchers for sure. That whale tooth for sure! But then again ebony always catches my eye too. Great work. ::tu:: ::tu::

Say, those worked out nicely! Glad I could finally help someone out with some parts.

Those look very "vintage", great work!

Very nice work is always Kaleb!

I love the simple elegance and clean curving lines with the whale's tooth and the ebony.
To my taste, it was a great call to leave the shield off of the whale's tooth, and just as great a call to put it on the ebony knife.
I dont know about the gold it's nicely done but it's a material I don't like, therefore the knife has a lot less appeal to me. But the whale's tooth and the ebony both knock it out of the park as far as I'm concerned!

Well done sir!

All very nice Kaleb. The whale tooth has to be the star of the show though. Great work ! ::tu::

These were my knives that Kaleb did such awesome work on. I had the whale tooth covers scrimmed and wanted to add a few photos of the final product.

The inspiration for the mark side was this old letterhead that I had:

And this is what the artist came up with:

On the back side I went with the 3rd Gen logo. Came out nice, but maybe a little big lol:

That Scrim work really appeals to me. That “letterhead” looks just like a stock certificate. Being a broker, that really appeals. Man I like that.
Good decision on the scrimshaw. Looks fantastic.
