Wow. Your knives are truly beautiful. Works of art. Someday I will be in a position to purchase one, I've got to own one.
Very good job...you, sir, are a craftsman.

Purfection.... love the blade shape on this one Todd , with your level of fit & finish combined with that scale material... I can't think of any knife that can trump it.

Now that is a slip joint!
At 3 5/16" closed, it pocket carries so well and when in use, it fits hands and tasks.
Mr. Davison,
Too many years ago I had made for me a knife very similar, actually two.
I like the Barehead Slimline Trapper, and had commented to my buddy how a Slimline Trapper, just shorter than the standard 4 1/8" closed length would be a nice size and handy.
Ivory handles, pinched bolsters, with an 18k yellow gold shield. The blades were 01 and had a clip blade akin to the Slimline Trapper.
One was 3 1/8" closed and the other, 3 5/16".
I miss the person more than I miss those knives.
This one of yours sure stirs some sentimental memories.

I've been drooling over your work on bladeforums for quite awhile now.
Someday I'll be able to own one of your works of art.
