Thanks!

The first batch of 1911 knives should be coming in soon so I will try to start taking some photos of the grins mounted on a knife.

Thanks!

I really like Weebly. I started out using another hosting site and switch to Weebly in January of this year and I was been really happy with their service and ease of use.

Those were actually picked out by another customer. But I have plenty more of that wood available.

Beautiful work! Wow! I'd love to have a set of grips like the ones in picture #5 of the OP.... for my new Dan Wesson CCO!

That's two-tone desert ironwood and it is very difficult to find like that. It comes with a high price too. I have all of my suppliers on the lookout for two-tone pieces like that, but they just don't come around very often.

Here's a taste of what the last box elder burl look like on a gun.
