I don't think you're being overly critical either.
Example
Thanks. I wonder what it looked like when new.r8shell The Howard is a beautiful oldster I think it's right that some people are questioning certain GEC jigging, CASE is more dependable (less so their dye skills though..)
Your image seems to have temp disappeared, Forum playing up weirdly here today...
But when I saw it earlier I was aghast. Off Roader drives through wet tar.. Looks kind of PRESSED OUT rather than jigged Now I've got hat fine Smokey Robinson song in my head 'The Tracks of My Tears'
That is sweet.
Nothing about that jigging draws me to this knife...it looks crude and ill thought out, and to me it destroys the lines of the whole package. In a word...ugly.Looks like GEC took it down but here is another pic
That is sweet.
I agree totally with Jeff... the difference to me is to have it look more random than to be obviously done mechanically.Mostly a matter of taste. I tend to prefer deep, random jigging, that doesn't immediately look like it was done by a machine. Some modern machine cut jigging is pretty good, but if it is, it looks more like hand cut.
Good
Not so good
