I got a little humbled on this one.
When I first discussed the knife with the customer, and then got final approval on the drawing, I'll admit that I was only somewhat pleased with the concept and willing to go ahead on the knife with a 'business as usual' attitude.
Well, as the knife neared completion, I found myself really liking this thing! I even postponed a commitment today so I could finish it!
Then, when I got done, I called the customer and asked him if he cared that I make some more of them!.
I just really fell in love with this little spearpoint.
It is 52100, forged from some round stock and a take-down assembly using a nice piece of Desert Ironwood.
I thoroughly enjoyed this knife - can you tell?

No, I can make any of this type that I want.
I'm probably the wrong guy to ask for any "necker" type knives.
I can find nothing more foolish that to make something really, really sharp and then hang it around your neck.
Yet another excellent example of working art!!
