Hope you like it.

Blue/Black G-10 scales...real pretty 1/4 inch pins and some filework.

That is very nice Ray. I like the filework a lot. Is that liners I'm seeing behind the scales?                          Lin

Kinda looks like white liners, Lin.
If it is, it's a really nice touch.

When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.

Yes, Lin...white liners. I always use liners..but tend to typically go understated with black on ironwood, etc.

I don't know how anyone can build a scale style knife and not use liners of some type.

I'm thinking of going "Keeslar" and moving into brass liners to really step things up a notch.

I don't really care for the organic "vine" filework pattern that you see so often.

I've been experimenting on soft steel with something I'm going to call my "Palmetto" pattern that will be different, at least.

Look for it on upcoming work.

I like everything about that one Ray. You doing your own leatherwork? I recently picked up a Dozier that has G10 scales. Your blade work is outstanding, my man! Love it.

Looking good, buddy!  That G10 makes some good handles.  Dan
