    Nick,
    Looks great! Reminds me how much I need to get going and do a project myself.

    Thanks much, all.

    Switchblade, not until after the wedding I have to much to do as it is, and already have an order for an XMarker that needs to be completed. I can give you the e-mail of one of the best bladesmiths I know, though. PM me if you're interested.

    David, nope, can't carve. Well, not well at any rate. I'm not very good with leather or wood, but if pressed I can turn something out (this dirk is an example). I may try something on this at a later time, or on my next blade.

    Holy Wah! That's a nice knife, eh!

    Sorry couldn't help myself. Great job Nick. You truly should be proud of what you've accomplished and I think it will very handsome on your hip at your wedding.
