nice! I didn't know you made knives, or that Brian knapped.
You should see if Brian has any of that .45 colt ammo left - not that there's anything wrong with .45 auto, but the colt would be more "western"

Those are awesome John! I really like the green. The double prong handle is really unique - makes for a spectacular finished knife!

Superb knives, John! Not only the blades, but the whole items show care for the details.

John,
Those are absolutely beautiful knives that you and Brian collaborated on. I am a huge fan of the art of lithic reduction, rock knapping, and stone tool reproduction. Keep up the great work; both of you!

That was my thought with that knife too. It looks just like a dragon! Is that horn naturally like that or did you add pieces to achieve the look? Either way it gives me some ideas for future projects with my own knives. I am also into fantasy fiction writing/reading and that type of design would fit perfectly for some fantasy creations I have been wanting to try.
