Ken I really like the way you flare the stone out in the "hips" a bit, gives the knives more feel to them, a bit more weight, makes them easier to hold when you have big hands. That's also a lovely color combination on that knife!!!! One of the prettiest I've seen, but then turquoise is one of my favorite stones...
The file work on this one is exceptional, you're really getting very good at that. How on earth do you do that and keep it so smooth and shiney? Looks absolutely terrific, very inspiring. I'm definitely going to be sending you some of my nicer knives to dress up, you're an artist on these. Everyone who's seen that guthook you did for me has asked where I got it, hopefully some will soon be contacting you.
Guys, Ken really does make each and every one of these a "one of a kind". I've not seen many to match his flare, and his stone choices are just fabulous.
