    I vote for #2 though #3 is a close second. Nice work as always.

    One of these days I've got to get one of mine to you for some carving.

    Wear them both to fend off those that say they want one of them!

    As with everything ya do me friend these show grand quality! Me staff is serving me well, as ya will see at Stone Mountain. Everyone who see's it is in awe of the quality ya put into it for me!

    If anyone is looking for a grand Dirk, I will be carrying a custom one for sale{not to compete with anyone else, I purchased it but no longer need it}at Stone Mountain this season.
