A Couple for D'Holder
Just finished these up a couple weeks ago.
These where real fun and a great open canvas to work with.
Hope you like.
Again not the best pictures.

Boy, Darren, that's some beautiful work also. I think D will be just as pleased with these as I was with mine. It's hard to pick a favorite from these two, but the center scroll with surrounding leaves kind of has the edge with me. I'll be shipping the other little vintage Kious out to you soon.

Friend Darren
Is a pleasure for me to see his engravings; I like very much the dotted fund and the design.
A greeting

Another beauty. What sort of wood is that on the handle? or is it wood? Whatever it is really adds to the knife.

Best regards

Thanks guys. It was fun to do these.
I believe the handles are Mammoth Ivory, but not 100% sure.
Thanks again.
Darren

Dynamite Engraving/Blue Mammoth
Darren, I love both of these. Of course, I have seen the top one in person, and the engraving is incredible. The whole piece of art is incredible.The dark partterns in the scales are actually blue in color. The swirl in the engraving and the pattern in the scales compliment each other so well. I love it, wish I had them both.

Darren-

You know how I feel about your work. Always tasty with a touch of drama.

This knife is no exception.

Terrific job!
