Oh boy, sorry for taking so long to post some pics. The knife was quick to get to me, but I hadn't really had time to sit down and admire it.

First off, the knife comes packaged in a basic brown cardboard box, but with nice old time graphics on the label(which I don't have a pic of, ). Open up the box, and the knife comes packaged in a soft black bag, and a nice paper card is also included.

Taking the knife out, this baby is a HANDFUL. Feels quite solid, with a simple but well-placed bar shield.

The clip blade is beautiful, so much going on there. Great etch, killer swedge, and double nail nicks!

Looking at the secondary blade, more of the same...swedge, double nail nicks.

Fit and finish on this knife is exceptional. Action on both blades is crisp and stout, grind lines are clean as one would hope.

The knife also has a stout bail, you could probably tow a truck with this thing!

I am thoroughly impressed with the quality, and can't wait to see what comes out next! Thanks again to Roger!!!

That is a healthy knife. nothing delicate about that. But surely looks quality. Happy for you. Thanks for the pictures.
