All right Iz lets see #1. How far have you come. I bet you still got it lying around the shop somewhere. How many knives did you make b4 you sold one? And on what # did you start convexing?

*sigh* You guys are bound and determined to embarrass me aren't ya?

Ok, you asked for it.
Here's Number one and number two. Made in November of '06

A Blackwater and an Osage.
Huge, thick, terrible convex grinds. If you want to call them grinds.:barf:
A nice big glue gaps where the scales meet up. One guy bought them both...poor fella.
I only made about ten or so knives those first three years. I ended up doing extensive testing before I got serious in 2009.
