I just got this beauty from the post office today and it is a stunner in person! Thanks Bill! It has a great feel to it. It's nice and heavy with the brass lining and n's bolsters. I wish my camera would do this knife justice, but these are the best photos I could get today. I put my other favorite Bill D. Hubertus custom next to it for a size comparison. I sure feel lucky to have this. :D

I just HAVE to ask - did you size the pullers from actual shells, or from the specs in a reloading manual :?:

Bill can answer it better Al, but while you're waiting; I did send him photos with 08 and 10 guage shell blanks next to a ruler for measurement. Also the rim sizes in mm. I don't know if they were of use to him or not.

My OTHER question was, WHO has both a 10 AND an eight guage :idea:
I'd like a mini one in .410 and 28 guage but I only have 1/2 of that :wink:

I used measurements that Jeff sent, and off the web, plus I just "guesstimated." I didn't have either shell here.

The Mikov is simply bad-ass Jeff. Bill did a fabulous job but it was a very creative concept on your part.






Now slow down Mister and give some of us a chance to get something new :lol:
Keeping my eye on you and that Chad fella :lol:

Well you guys are safe for now to get as many as you like without my interferance. BTW I forgot to mention that this knife whispers open just as smooth as silk and locks up very solid. there is no blade play movement in any direction whatsoever, very solid! :D

Perfect and beautiful, I like it.
It just fits well together. Mikov should absorb the idea.
That's even a switch blade that you can take to hunt with.
I come from the astonished not get out. :shock: :D

Sweet!! I love the blue liner, filing and jigged bone combo. Gives it an Earthy, "Hand me Down", Heirloom quality look! Very soothing to the eye....
