Those are excellent, Don! ::tu:: Lockback whittlers are one of my favorite patterns.

I love the cell colors F'NR came up with but the outgassing issues can be devastating. I just stick to bone, stag and pearl now. ::nod::
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Thanks, redrider. ::tu::

I agree, the cells are definitely eye candy but at what cost down the road, although, I would buy if the price is right; can't go wrong with pearl and stag though. ::tu::

This one began life clad in celluloid but I had it re-handled when it started showing signs of outgassing. Love the knife--a single Wharncliffe Congress pattern. Love it even more with the Mammoth Ivory covers installed by BIGHEAD.
