I just finished mine up and it will be in the mail tomorrow.

I received my knife this weekend, I think from hickorybill, but there was not a screen name in the package. I'll get some pics up in the next couple of days.

Got this beauty from bowtarist today. 8) Made from a farriers rasp and wood from a hawk handle he has had for 25 years.
Thanks Derick!! It will most definitely be used.  ;)

Here's a couple pics of the knife I received from hickorybill. I've never seen a sheath like this one before. It's narrow strips of leather stitched together with artificial sinew. The zebra wood handle is nice.

Thanks for posting pics Bevan.  Hope you get some use out of it.  I know it's a lot of metal, but sometimes it's nice to have a bigger knife.  ;)

hickorybill, that's a cool sheath.  jt1995v is a luck dude.

I'll post pics once I receive. dpg

Got my other KITH trade today!! Very neat Brazilian Agate knife with a Cholla handle (left hollow {very cool}) capped with yellowheart, purpleheart, and zebra wood. On a ceder stand. I wish the photo's were better. the flake scars on the knife are great!!

I got both of mine, I've just been too busy to post a pic.  I will get one up this evening.  They both look great.  Also, I finally finished the quillwork on the two I made.  They were shipped out Monday.
