Nice, thanks for the offer (to you and others) but these beauties are spoken for already. They are destined to go into exhibition grade grips for knives and pistols.

Nice chunks of turq! The exhibition knife scales will be beautiful.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. 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."

-- C.S. Lewis
