:bloodybiggrin: BTW, I'd post a pic of the damascus billet that Kev sent us for the BB collab knife, but I think I'll wait till I get it forged;)

Very nice indeed. I like the classic, simple design and the even grain of the handle. I look forward to seeing much more of that sort of thing! :biggthump
