This was a slight departure from the normal folders that I love making, but it was quite an enjoyable change of pace. The specs are: 5 inch O1 blade with twisted ribbon filework, dovetailed 416 bolsters, desert ironwood scales, stainless lanyard tube, and stainless mosaic pins. Let me know what you think.

That's a great looking shape and that piece of iron wood is beautiful. You put it all together!
 
Brandant, sorry for calling you John. I guess you just chalk that one up to an ole coot's brain fart!! Still like the knife though!!!
 
Every bit as gorgeous as your folders! I can't help but see your signature style in everything you make. The shape of the point, the gentle curve of the spine- it is immediately identifiable to me as one of yours. Beautiful!
 
Thanks again everyone! It really was a fun knife to build. It was also the first time I've used desert ironwood. I enjoyed working with it and it finished out absolutely gorgeous. I'll be using it again for sure.
