Thanks to Glenn's post earlier this week, I realized that I had some photography to do...but shamed between Glenn's handiwork with the axis hide, Zee's fantastic time-delay photography, and a general lack of free time, my new babies have been waiting in the shadows for their debut. Until now!
I'll save the theatrics and let the pictures speak for themselves.

Hopefully the knife will get some action in the AM. It's been too long since I've chased big game in the Carolinas!!

Awesome knife! And you know I love the holster of course  Kral's work is exceptional. I broke mine in this last weekend on a big doe Edge retention is exceptional and still shaves hair as before the skinning job. Amazing what a proper grind and good steel can do! Thanks for a great product Kim!

Tools or artwork? I'd say both!

Got my order in with Kral!! Can't wait to get it back! He said there is 8 ahead of me, so it may be a bit, but I can hardly wait! Looks like it will be well worth the wait from the pictures you guys have put on here! I've been wanting a dedicated falconry knife, and it looks like I have finally found what I've been looking for!!
Thanks for the recommendation guys!
