Great looking scales! Has Rick ever seen your work?

 

[The Sun]

Thank you!

i believe he has.

i talk to Rob (Rick's right hand) three or four times a month and consider him a good friend, and we've spoke about my work before.

Beautiful woodworking skills! Staying clear of buying fine knives is a constant battle for me. You're pics made today a hard day to avoid BForums. Have you ever thought of making scales for "lesser" knives?

I'm sure you do, but it's funny how much you do talk on the phone and how short yours posts are!

I talked to Jeff about the knife scales he makes and am considering having one made for my XM-18 and considering a set for my Benchmade 525 as well.

He's very, very knowledgeable about a wide range of subjects aside from just knives. If you ever talk to him you'll find out that he's quite the talker he's also good at listening to other talkaholics!

Thanks brother! i'll try to give you a call again tomorrow (or today...i lost track!). I'll try not to talk my battery dead this time!!!

Funny thing is, we didn't even really talk about the scales! being a talkaholic is a disease!

Thanks again for the kind words brother, you're welcome to call anytime!!! :twothumbs
