Clarence,

Those are all magnificent looking. You always do great work. I would recognize a Craig Barr blade anywhere and like them a lot. The handle is beautiful and really highlights the Damascus. I think I have a knife you made with the same style blade as the middle one, but with a different handle (snakewood and mammoth ivory). That dyed maple burl sure is pretty.

Thanks for showing us your work!

Allan
