That is awesome.  I love mammoth ivory but it's hard to find pieces big enough for most of the knives I build and if you do it's pretty pricey.  I've had no desire to try a folder since I started building knives, but I'd love to have one like that to carry.  This the season for giving.   :D

Well there is another beauty, your Damascus blade and bolster are nice. Great Job Kevin.

If anyone can get one of Kevin's knives I would do it. I love mine and carry it everyday.

Yes, it has been awhile!

Worth the wait I would say!  A great looking folder Kevin.

Very nice and very inspirational.

I really enjoy seeing your folders and this one's no exception.  I've slowly acquired most of the parts to try some liner lock folders similar to the one you posted, though mine won't be nearly as nice or well executed...  Out of curiousity, what thickness liners do you use-.060?  I found some 3/16" pivots that take the same 2-56 screws I got for everything else (trying to keep a little consistency for my brain as I start out).  What size pivots do you use?

Anyway, thanks for posting your knives and for any advice.
