New Knife by Arley
 
Recently Arley put a knife up for sale that I liked but it sold quickly. Arley and I talked and he made this beauty for me.

Ebony Scales

The scales are the same wood that used to be used on piano keys. He had a hard time working on them because of how dense the wood is. But they should last a long time.

Great work and a great knife.

Wow, that sure is pretty! Please stop with all the knife pics though, the last thing I need to find is the "next thing" :rolleyes:

Matt, knives to me are like guns to you. Always looking for the next one. Except, I rarely part with a knife.

Beautiful Damascus, A. Not a fan of leather sheats, but great job there too.
Will you carry it? :decisions, decisions...;)
Enjoy it!

Oh Matt... tell me about... every time I hang out with certain people here, the wish list grows...

Exactly what are you trying to say, Andy? ;)

Actually, I'm finally to a point where I know what I like and I love what I have. The downside to that is I have nothing left to sell so whatever I acquire going forward is coming out of pocket. I know, I know, what I bought then sold came out of pocket too but somehow it never felt that way - lol.

What concerns me is how much I'm looking forward to getting that Perrin Street Bowie ... I feel I'm on the precipice of "next."

Very Nice Andy,

Matt and Barbie just make yourself a list, and buy one at a Time..........


BTW Matt we all know why you cant buy a knife last time you bought one you thought you were Crocodile Dundee and your better half confiscated it from you:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::D
