Another MK masterpiece

[barry richardson]

A while ago I gifted Tomsilav with some DIW that he was craving, and look what I just got in the mail He gifted me with a knife..... and sheath! a lefty sheath no less. It's beautiful Tom, and the handle is my favorite: DIW w/sapwood. Probably too nice for a working knife, will just have to lay on my desk and look handsome... Thank you my friend! oh yea, it has a super-cool file pattern down the spine too, forgot to take a pic of it. I will post that later...

Barry, i am glad you like it. Here is the pic i took before sending. Its my vision of random filework and probably my last. I like geometry, not random.
Thanks for that nice looking DIW

Just love that shape. I'm a Persian guy anyway and that has a graceful Persian feel to it. Love that spine work too.

(looks for Tom's address to gift him some wood . . . )

The spine is awesome...but so is the rest! I'm just trying to figure out how you'd do the parts where it looks like a nearly complete circle going thru, each about 1/3 of the way in from each end. Purdy!!!

Tom -Beautiful knife man! and very nice file work! I have a question though - is the space created by the file work filled with anything? Like dyed epoxy or resin to create a smooth finish or is it open?
