Beautiful set. Never heard of a few of the names you used for the handles? "Dark Forest stag"?

Agreed, beautiful set. Regarding the scale types, I remember reading about the manufacturing process for "pinecone resin". Yours looks very attractive.

Wonderful set of quality knives ,all with beautiful scale materials.

I particularly love that pine resin example,something I have never seen till now ,and the work on the spring and liners is stunning.

Fine group of blades, congrats 8)

Very nice group. I have about 15 or so. Have sold most swivels and am now concentrating only on picklocks. Luv them all, though.

Those are some sexy stilettos for sure. I almost grabbed one of those customs when they first landed this year. I had signed up to be notified when new knives are available and got lucky one night. I was checking my email, which I'm not very regular to do, and there was the notification email with a link that just popped up while I was in email. So I clicked and bam I was on the site and there were a bunch of customs. I sat there looking them over, hemming and hawing with my budgetary consciousness, and ultimately decided to check back the next day. When I did go back, much less than a full 24 hours, most were gone and I think there were only 2 9 inch variations left, neither of which had made my "list."

It was then that I realized how fast their knives moved after each is posted up! A hard lesson to learn for me because I had my heart set on a couple of them. Suffice to say, I now check almost twice daily!! :)

Peace.

I know what you mean, I had bought a couple of 11" knives and thought, I would like a 9" but when I went back, they were all gone.
