Handmade knife auction for Tim
First off, I want to thank Steve Davis (Blademaker) for donating one of his handmade knives. Thank you Steve!! The generosity of this group is truly amazing!!
Steve has used his unique talents to create a one of a kind, hand made knife for auction. This knife would normally sell for over $600. I will have pictures up this evening, with a complete description. I rushed out the door this morning without grabbing the knife. I do know the following details: - Hand rubbed finnish on an ATS-34 stainless steel blade - Titanium, hand filed bolsters and liners - Whale bone handles |

Definitely a one of......don't have anymore whale bone. Thank you, Bart, for taking care of this for me.... We're taking care of the situation I mentioned the other night, I'll call when I can, but things are looking much better.

Since xXBUDXx had the idea, with Blademaker, I think it's fair to let him make the rules.
I obviously don't know what I'm doing, beyond supplying a knife to auction. |

Bart - when you have some time, some pics of the knife that Steve made would help.
