I called it a nessmuck...which it reminds me of but a friend pointed out that it and the olive wood one are old Bob Engnath designs.
I really like the last one. That california buckeye is awesome. And your leatherwork puts me to shame. Great knives!!
Boy I am blown away by the volume and quality of work you consistently put out!! Well done again!!
Nathan
Great knives. Your knives always look amazing. That California buckeye is incredible looking.
Clarence,
Those knives are all gorgeous. I like the buckeye the best of all the woods, and the knife with the afzelia burl is probably my favorite overall if I could only have a single knife to use in the field, but I would be thrilled to have any (or all) of them. The sheaths look great too. You keep getting better and better at this, and I too am surprised at how many knives you have been producing.

WOW!!! All are beautiful but if I had to pick just one it would be that spalted maple.
I love them ALL! Great craftsmanship.
