mrbigg,

1. Are there tang stamps on the very nice looking Damascus pair?

2. What is the tang stamp on the big guy?

3. Is the swedge blade your NOS transitional?

4. Is the knife in the rear of the top photo one of the new "scale free" models? Or is it the switchblade version of Wally J. Corpse?

My guess would be a CRKT kit

Bigg you twins although very nice just didn't excite me the way my twins always did.

Mr Bigg
I have a 9" dagger like your top one that has even more yellow in it. But let us forget new knives for a minute and travel back to those thrilling days of yesteryear when man made his own knife. Lets get the particulars on what your up to with those pieces in back with the skull button.

Teq
Lately I have been getting some gorgeous horns and it was roughly 2-3 years ago it was referred to as french tip, I think that was a come on phrase cause now it is never used anymore now you hear. Fantastic horn like they used to use or beautiful colored horn like the old days etc. Who knows horn is horn when its exceptional.

mr PB - i could tell you what i'm up to - but you know what they say about three guys and a secret

i knew sticking those in that pic would intrigue a few of you

as far as the horn goes - prefer the look of the vintage stuff too it just seems to be richer with those greeny yellow colors.
the modern horns i have been seeing lately have been exceptional - these two are beautiful, but i too prefer more honey than creme!

Very nice Mr. Bigg-
At first when I think about Damascus on a pick, I think it wont go together well, but when ever I actually see it I think it look incredible.

Dark horn w/ damascus looks good too, but I like me some blondes also.

Aren't the 2 top ones swival? I see a curve in the bottom not sure on top one cause of the angle.

pb,i to prefer the blond horn over any others,i think the only one that uses that phrase is shark 45,but your right horn is horn when it's beautiful
