I like to show the steps, I still get a kick out of seeing the design emerge from the metal

yep. its pretty neat to scan through after they're all up and see it progressing in a single view like I did coming in late to see it.

bad part is I think this ones nicer than your own personal one.

Super clean, looks like the work of a machine rather than by hand.

Nice work!

Those look awesome! I have Duck Envy!

I have so many pieces that I look at and think, "Yeah, need to send that to Chip", but I have to get off my ass to make it happen. WValtakis , you are an Artiste, spelled with an "e" to make it almost as classy as your work is.

Received this pic from Spikediesel today. Getting closer to done, I’m so excited!!!

Yeah that looks good.

It won't be real soon because I've got a bunch of folders to do, but I'd like to commission you for that basket weave engraving on a guard.

I've got a billet of basket weave Damascus going to make a blade and I'll carve a handle similar to this one I did:

I think some of your engraving on a guard would be a perfect bridge between a basket weave blade and handle.

Is that something you'd be interested in when the time comes?

Dang, J, that's a heckuva fancy knife!

So is the Microtech Duck going to add a SAK to his daily carry or is it just for when you’re entertaining specific guests??

Actually, I’ve been carrying a Pioneer X for quite a while! I have one of those leather pocket slips that holds a pen, flashlight, and SAK. Rides with me almost everyday.

My mistake, I don’t remember seeing one in your pics (maybe it’s because your autos steal the show lol), so I assumed a badass SAK was going to be an addition to your daily carry. Either way, you have excellent taste in toys Duck and I hate you for it

I usually don’t include the PX in my pics, really just because everyone has seen one and knows what it is. However, with these new covers I’ll definitely be showing it off proudly

Just so you know, I’ll be pulling your card if you don’t lol

“What did you do Duck, forget your Pioneer at home AGAIN?…Save your breath, I don’t want to hear your bs excuses”

Spikediesel has her all back together! What a beauty
