Wow, out of the blue look what I was gifted by my friend and yours, Nate NDK !!!

Absolutely incredible craftsmanship here.. and yes that's Bat Cave jasper!

He told me this was only the 4th knife he has done.. hard to believe! He even did the leather work on the sheath!

Not only did he send me this killer creation, but some other gifts as well..

Stefoinite!

I've marveled at cabs members have made with this material in the past but never had any until now.

Also some Wisconsin Moonstone

Thank you so much Nate! You, Sir ROCK!!!

I Wanna Rock!!!

I just ordered a couple of blade blanks and plan to give it a try; I hope mine come out half that well.

Wow, that knife is something special. Beautiful work on it and the Bat Cave scales are perfection!

The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

The extra material is great too, but Holy Cow, how sweet is that handle? Very generous, on both parts, it sounds.
